| Remark: | The lone specimen was swimming very slowly in clear shallow water inshore next to the yacht marina. The marina staff were very interested in fish and had never seen anything like it. They easily scooped it up with a net and we took some photos while the fish was apparetly very relaxed and motionless in our hands. After being released, the swim slowly cruised away from the area. | ||||
