Field Notes

Notes:

Bearded or Tassled Scorpionfish? Appreciate help on ID.
This fish turned around and sort of flashed a bright yellow side behind its fins (see photos 3-4). First time to encounter such behaviour. Was it irked by my camera and was warning me to stay away?
Night dive at Dive and Trek House Reef.
