The Fish Database
Posted: Mon Oct 08, 2018 2:22 am
The Fish Database has been created to allow easy access to underwater photography of reef fish and other underwater life from all around the world, from the Red Sea, the Indian Ocean, the Great Barrier Reef, to the Caribbean and the Pacific Ocean. In the database you will find all kinds of species of reef fish including Angelfish, Butterflyfish, Parrotfish, Wrasse, Groupers, as well as many others. The site also includes non-fish subjects with an underwater theme, such as Corals, Nudibranches, Octopus and any other marine life you might come across during a dive or snorkelling. The search facilities allow you to browse the photos by region or species. For example, if you're heading off to Tobago on holiday and want to have a look at what you might see whilst diving or snorkelling, then just type "Tobago" into the country field above and hit the search button. If you've seen a spotted Moray Eel and wonder exactly what it's called, try entering "Moray" into the "Family" field and hitting search. For some of the most common families of reef fish, the site has included some shortcuts in the menu. Another site for fish identification is Fish Base.
