    But wonderful place to go, both for the diving and to experience one of the greatest and most beautiful cultures on earth.

    I gotta say it was pretty interesting. Most of the corals (90%) are brown. The pics dont really bring out the true colors, those purple acros are really vivid. It was pretty cool where we went the coral growth started at about 1 foot of water or about 10 ft from shore, mostly montipora from there down to about 10 ft. Then from 10 ft to 30 ft was the acropora zone, 30+ ft down was a mix, but mostly yellow branching porites. There where a lot of cool stuff i wanted to 'take' home :)
    I did see very cool damsels, they where the standard electric blue, but on the tops and bottom they had neon orange stripes, anyone seen those at the pet store?
