Awesome Video.. but are we just going to ignore the cut at 1:54-ish with the air inflator hose? Great skills demo though. Thanks.

Excellent job guys. Definitely one of the best ones out there. Was rather appalled at another one I just watched from a Platinum Course Director...

she did not remove the hair from her forehead after putting the mask on. minute 18

So the only thing that I have a question about, is the Emergency Weight Drop at the end. I was always told to pull my weights and extend my arms out to my sides before dropping them, so that in the even that my fins are directly under me, they dont get caught on my fins and maybe possibly pull me down. Is this true ? But all in all, Very good , professional demos ;) Thank you

Dear Gen Z people. Please, for the love of God, stop saying "like" throughout every sentence. Yours sincerely... Everyone else 😂 Good video though. Thanks

This is so amazingly helpful. I grew up in Miami and snorkeled off of Key Largo in the late 60s, weekly, on my friend's trimaran. When the reefs were in much better shape. I knew some of these names, but had forgotten most of them. Thank you very much!

what ppl find the time to do never ceases to amaze me

Love it 🤩

Such a great video 👏🏻 Thanks for sharing such incredibly clear demos and slightly in awe of the buoyancy!

Congratulations 🎉🎉🎉

Thats all I want

Thank you so much for your work 😭💙

Looking forward to seeing more 👍

I am really excited to come my self Amit Kumar from India 🇮🇳 union territory Andaman and Nicobar island 🏝️ 🌊🐳🪸🪼🐠🐚🐟🤿🏝️

Awesome 🤙😍

❤

Thank you. Perfect video for my upcoming dive trip in Carribean. I have been studying nearly all the fish you covered, and your tips are very helpful. I also have been using online Quizlet flashcard set called "Common Southern Carribean Reef Fish" to imprint them on my brain. Thanks again!

Thanks !Very Helpful and Informative

Exercise 3 is missing and there are two exercises 7 🙂 .I m in the middle of the PADI rescue training and these video's are very helpfull

Thank you so much, this is so helpful. I recently started scuba diving in the Caribbean and learning the fish will help me enjoy my dives even more. So far I only went through the pictures, but I plan to return to listen to all your commentary on all the species. Very impressive.

I actually did my idc in utila 16 years ago. Getting back to it finally

I can’t identify a medium sized fish that had a long yellow tail? off the back of its head. Any idea? Thank you.

Now that was epic 😎🙌💯

thank you!

Promo SM 😉

What's the drunk dude doing checking a pressurized cylinder...is he looking for holes 😂 😂 😂

Thanks. It was very helpful and encouraging. Appreciate all that you do. Hope to be a PADI divemaster someday. 😊

This is the absolute BEST fish guide I’ve heard or seen thanks. As an English teacher, let me just point out that saying fish look similarLY is describing the way in which they use their eyes to look at things.. I think you mean that they look similar.

Hi! does this mean we use less nitro when diving since we can breathe through our nose?

Thx a lot for all this rich information, very useful not much documentation on the subject

Seriously, I look just like one of those students!!! Brothers!!!????

Hi Eli, Wow what a wonderful job you’ve done on the reef fish. I’ve been diving since 1970 and have over 3000 dives. I’m always confusing the snappers with grunts and other snappers and you’ve done a wonderful job of clarifying the difference of each fish. I also used to dive Maui and so the blue stripe snappers there (not indigenous) add to my confusion. Recently, I’ve been diving Lembeh and there the fish and critters are really different and easy to tell apart. But stuck at home watching an underwater webcam in Bonaire (Harbour Village) where we used to stay, I’ve been really frustrated. Now I’m not. You really deserve a lot of credit. I used to make tutorial videos for my customers and I know the amount of effort you put into this one. You should be very proud. Good job. And Thanks.

WELL DONE on Scuba Unit Removal & Replacement U/W while hovering neutrally buoyant at 20:10! Great demonstration!!

Also that's a pool setting you practice that as a pool lifeguard. But in a open ocean not to sure its that simple.

Really helpful! I have one question, though: I was always taught that you could distinguish between blennies and gobies by looking at their dorsal fins: blennies have 1 large dorsal fin while gobies have several small. However, in your pictures you identified the fish with several small dorsal fins as a blenny, so now I am a bit confused...

🥳🥳🥳

Great video!! Thanks

Well done! This answered so many questions. Thank you!

I’m going for my DM test, thanks for the helpful demonstration 👍🏼

great tips as I am going through the divemaster course. Once done, I will be coming down to Roatan to do my IDC - loved your video so will have to take a look at Dive Utila. How long is the IDC course?

Wow this is amazing content! Thank you for showing the signs for some of the fish also. I'm starting to learn how to identify different fish before I try my hand at diving.Thank you for making this available for free!

Thanks for cool IDC DMT update skills. Helpful to learning. 🤙

OK signs should always be held away from the body, even on dry land.

Are you offering this as something we can certify in as instructors? I'd love to teach this where I am.

Good team work 👌🐬🐬🐬

Tapped a fin on R&R underwater.

I want to learn.

I like the new look of the classroom. Great video. Keep it up. Congrats to the new instructors.

Way way too much commercial fishing

Sad to hear that the Whale Sharks have left & aren't coming back 😢 Very sad, I was thinking seriously about diving in Utila but not now as it's just like Roatans West End imo
