Hello Bob,
Sir, I have no reason to doubt that they are Batfish other than your
comments. A sea robin can also "sit" on the bottom and is sometimes confused with the
batfish. The head is a little different and the legs are more claw like
instead of the "landing gear" type on the batfish.
Either way I'd be happy to see some of each on my trip there in April.
Good luck diving tomorrow sir,
Ray
