My friend Mad Max from Switzerland posted me an email describing a wonderful
dive trip he had in the Red Sea earlier on in the year. They were on a
luxury dive boat run by Heaven Fleet. On arrival they went straight to St
John's reef complex on the border to Sudan. Sounds like he had an absolute
blast, quote "The sea was calm. I took another 1000 Pictures: sharks,
wrecks, dolphins, schools of barracudas, wonderful coral gardens."

It made me search on the web for more info on an area I would love to dive
one day.
I found this link that was quite enlightening:

I was though surprised with the comment on this site that the oceanic
triggerfish is a species found only in the tropical Red Sea. I am sure I
wasnt seeing things at the CozNEDfest when all these oceanic triggerfish
came out of the deep to taunt Strike. I am assuming they are the same
species .. or are there variations depending on their location. Anyone know
as we don't see the oceanic trig this side of the world, which is a real
shame as they do look quite bizzare flapping away on mass.
