Longfin Bannerfish
Longfin Bannerfish - Photographed on the Boonsung Wreck off Khao Lak, Thailand

The longfin is nearly identical to its schooling cousin, except that it doesn't, er, school. Actually, the longfin is a bit longer and rounder than the schooling bannerfish.

Please note: Identification of fish, corals, etc. is a tricky business. It's entirely possible that I've incorrectly identified a photo I've taken. If you spot an error, please contact me so I can correct it and improve this resource.
