This episode features many of the colorful tropical fishes from the coral reefs of Thailand. First we encounter the famous school of teira batfish at Koh Tachai north of the Similan Islands, pinnate batfish from Koh Bon, and golden spadefish from the Surin Islands.
We then meet 4 different types of colorful angelfish including the emperor angelfish which makes a dramatic transformation in coloration as it matures from juvenile to adult.
We then encounter some of the species of pretty butterflyfish from the Andaman Sea, the closely related bannerfish, and the moorish idol, which at first glance is very similar to the bannerfish.
We then take a look at surgeonfishes (tangs) and unicornfishes that comprise the family Acanthuridae, before meeting bigeyes (bulleyes) and the striking juvenile emperor red snapper. Finally we encounter the amazing colorful patterns of the Andaman sweetlips and oriental sweetlips.
