A fish swims on the right side of the screen, while coral is visible on the left side. The fish is a redband parrotfish, with a white body that is yellow on top. The fins are red, and there is a striking line of red color extending from the fish's mouth as well.
A bit blurry because the fish was zooming past the camera, but I have a new species for you today: the redband parrotfish! A smaller species, with such striking patterns.
