More butterflyfish

Here are two more gorgeous butterflyfish that we often see while snorkeling.  The ornate butterflyfish has the more spectacular markings, but the longnose butterflyfish is also striking in appearance.  Both use the same basic colors as the butterflyfish that appeared here a few weeks ago.  And both species grow up to 8 inches long, but these were about 5 inches long.

Always a joy to see.
