New Angel Sighting

Guests diving in Gorontalo this past week have been enjoying 25-meter visibility on the wall dive sites. At the popular Shadowlands dive site, we spotted a pair of rarely seen Black-spot angelfish (Genicanthus melanospilos) near the bottom of the third cave. It is a deepwater species that feeds on plankton. Males and females are strikingly different in appearance. This Western Pacific fish is only seen on outer reef drop-offs that are rich in growth.
