Tooth Fish: Do you know what kind of fish this is. I saw it diving off the coast of sumatra. It was about 40cm long. The diving instructor said it was harmless, but didn't know the English name.

Do you know what kind of fish this is. It seems silly calling it a

tooth fish. I saw it diving off the coast of sumatra. It was about

50cm long and very fat and ugly with lots of teeth. The diving

instructor said it was harmless, but didn't know the English name.

This is fairly obviously an image of a crocodile (or aligator, I cannot tell) that has been put through some type of image manipulation. It might have been more convincing if you had drawn in some gills.

Think the gills are just out of focus in the black area behind , down and right of the eye, but I am not sure. As far as I know, there are no large reptiles in the oceans around Sumatra. I had a look at your portfolio, but there weren't any pictures there, just a list of snide remarks about other peoples photo's. Thanks anyway.

I saw the same kind of fish off Borneo (Saba) last year, but the ones I saw were a little smaller. The local name is 'Cawup". Don't know the scientific name, but they are really amazing.You got a great photo here!

This looks like the mouth of a kind of porcupine fish found in Indonesia. It might be called a Cyclichthys, but I am not sure. Great photo though!

You have absolutely frashed this cayman in Photoshop -I cant help laughing. You need to be more conservative using Photoshop and spend more time with it.
