Can't believe this photo won, especially with some of the other great photos as competition! Thanks to those who voted. Sad news though, the neon dottyback passed away  (no, the blue spotted jawfish didn't eat it) but I guess will live on in this poto. So I'm glad it won.

Sorry about the fish dying. Great photo though. Congrats! (I admit, I did vote for it). All the submissions were fantastic! Congrats to all the photographers that were in the running.

You are too kind. Thank you!! I did like this fish. It reminded me of a snake when it moved and liked to dart in and out of rocks. The colors were amazing. However it liked to dart in small circles as well which seemed strange. It also had a hard time finding food, even though there was food around - looked everywhere except where there was food. I even tried feeding with a pipette. In retrospect I think the fish came from the store with a defect. Definitely a good fish to buy and reef safe.
You can find the story of how I got this shot on my site in my signature below. I can't post links yet as a new member of this forum.
