    Does it use those teeth to grind down that coral? Nice image.

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"

    yes, it does. That looks like a type of parrot fish which are "corallivores". They scrape chunks of the coral limestone base to get the living coral tissue.

    Man, that's a cool shot. thumb.gif Wish I had something like that when I taught marine ecology!
