Fish of the Week - Napoleon Wrasse

This chap was spotted bumbling around Jackson Reef in the Tiran straits recently.

FOTW would like to thank the WWF (not the wrestling lot) for putting this most fabulous creature on its most endangered species list. FOTW are currently in negotiations with its ISP to prevent the FOTW website being accessible in Japan where the lips of these fish are considered a delicacy.

Caption Competition Winner

Well done 'Ali Cat' for your entry to the FOTW caption competition which was voted unanimously (1-0) the winner (click on comments on the 12th March 2006 FOTW posting to see all the entries). Unfortunately prizes can not be awarded to anonymous entries so the next FOTW caption competition will be a rollover. Best of luck next time.

Fish of the Week - Cornet Fish


Apologies to regular visitors to FOTW for the lack of new postings. A select FOTW team have been back to the Red Sea to collect more spectacular images for you. Later on this month we will be featuring a special Ras Caty series. Yes, even Ras Caty is a rich source of underwater creatures.
