Identify Fish

Recommended Posts

Top one looks like a Needlefish and the fish in the second picture I'm pretty sure is a Yellowtail dampselfish. http://www.randallgamby.com/fish-pages/fish197.html

 

Google the two names above and see what you think. Here is two sights I use to help ID the fish in my pictures http://www.fishbase.org/search.php http://www.randallgamby.com/index.html but there are a lot of other good (helpful) fish ID websights.

 

The yellowtail dampselfish is often very blue with bright spots and a yellow tail of course.

Any help will be appreciated on identifying these fish from Roatan.

Kind of thought the first one looked like a needle or what we have here in Texas an Alagator gar but wasn't sure. The second one I do have another pic and it has a yellowish tail but it was not blue, it was a tanish color. The site are a couple I have looked at before to idenify fish. Have found that usally someone on here has posted them at one point or another.:)

 

 

Thanks
