Anthias (endemic), Honaunau, Hawaii, 140 feet
Basslets or Anthias are among our favorites. These little groupers are quite rare in Hawai’i at deeper scuba depths and normally shy away from cameras. They feed upon zooplankton at current-swept ledges, pinnacles and wrecks. Males maintain harems of smaller, somewhat less-colorful females. Four species most likely to be seen by divers are shown here; several more live in very deep water
