Dear all,Just wanted to share some extraordinary encounters with a charismatic coral reef fish we almost lost to extinction: the goliath grouper.We dove a wreck at night, in southeast Florida during this year's spawning aggregation season. We were fortunate to have a couple of filmmakers on board who produced this video, including the text provided in You Tube. The 6.5 minute video is not addressed to scientists but to the SCUBA diving community. An example of reaching out beyond academic research.I'm the diver with a yellow bandana around minute 5.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G4Ho87oiUo4You can learn more about goliath groupers in my recent paperhttp://grouperluna.wordpress.com/2012/10/12/guilt-free-goliath-groupers/Enjoy
