Hi Guys,
I was hoping to get an ID on these fish that are always at the beach here so I can research more on them.
I can say they behave very much like the Geophagus genus of freshwater fish. Loving it when you disturb the sand for them to sift through.
The water is always saturated with them. Not sure if you can see in the last video but there are hundreds just beyond where we are swimming.
