So Kien....its hard to tell from the pictures.....how big is this fish now? I have seen ones with this coloring in Mexico/Hawaii while snorkeling and I find them very facinating.

The coloring is amazing.

Yeah, they are everywhere in the Mayan Riviera. Travelling mostly in small schools pooping out their coral sand. When the sunlight hits them just right they almost glow with colour. Very beautiful fish.
