<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>They could possibly be the same fish.  Remember the differences between common names and genus and species.</p>
<p>Common names often cause us grief, and we know the difference.  We bought a common plant today, and finally found it's &quot;real&quot; name and are very familiar with it!</p>
<p>BTY, beautiful job, as always.  Will we see you this winter????</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Shades of Charles Darwin:  There is a blenny in British Columbia called a &quot;Mosshead Warbonnet&quot; Chirolophis Nugator that is very similar to this guy!</p>

<p>Don't be fooled by the colour, it's usually a lot darker than this.  The ones I have seen were a deep red colour!</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>What incredible videos and photos, amigo! It's a privilege for me to be able to share them with a wider audience. I never cease to be amazed at the shots you get and the amazing marine species you photograph. You do more to inspire people to snorkel in Zihuatanejo bay and the surrounding waters than almost anyone else I know. Certainly more than all our overpaid public officials put together. Thank you!<br />

<title>A calming fish video from Zihuatanejo Bay</title>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Another tiny citizen of Zihuatanejo Bay to add colour and calm to your Sunday.</p>
<p><img src="https://i1.wp.com/mexican-fish.com/wp-content/uploads/F854-Warthead-Blenny-13.jpg?resize=570%2C508&amp;ssl=1" class="left" alt="[image]" /></p>

<p><img src="https://i0.wp.com/mexican-fish.com/wp-content/uploads/F854-Warthead-Blenny-10.jpg?w=534&amp;ssl=1" class="left" alt="[image]" /><br />
This is a single species compilation video from Zihuatanejo Mexico of,</p>
<p>Warthead Blenny, Protemblemaria bicirrus.</p>
<p>My working theory is that the orange head may indicate breeding male and the light brown may indicate a juvenile. The photographic degree of difficulty is huge for snorkelers, requiring a 6 foot plunge, getting physically set up and then the serendipity of the tiny, one inch, Macro, micro,  fish being available in what is left of my breath. I only see these fish in two specific tubes very far apart, just off La Ropa, but have seen the orange and light brown version in the same hole. There are more single species blenny videos of Zihuatanejo's otherwise undocumented species on the Youtube channel using the, &quot;J&quot; icon. For Blenny enthusiasts there is a link in the video description to a friend's non profit Mexican fish identification and database website with blennies among many other species listed. In fact a simple Google IMAGE search of my, &quot; Facebook Only&quot;, name, Ron Woheau along with the word blenny will provide many blenny images with reverse links to the page mentioned and of course right back here. By the nature of the Google image search function some photos will not be mine but can be useful and instructive in searching for any blenny or other species you have particular interest in.</p>
<p>I always appreciate Rob's support of hosting our more general videos on his activities page but in this case want to again specifically acknowledge THIS  simple but important source of searchable keywords for the fish species so some kid, wherever the internet stretches, interested in this topic can perhaps connect the fish he is studying to a keyword or photo shown here. </p>
