Ornate Angelfish - Genicanthus bellus

Haven't you ever seen one of us before?? I thought I was seeing things when I found this beautiful angelfish. Normally only a deep water fish (50-100 metres) - and no I didn't dive that deeply, it is rarely seen by divers. What a find! Image taken on the Cocos (Keeling) Islands.
