I went through all my underwater pictures, and I cropped out all the different fish species that were encountered. Some of the photos are blurry and quite a few don't have the best color as I'm quite new to underwater photography. Anyway, here are all the fish pictures along with my identifications and a few non-fish species. There were two that I wasn't able to identify, but I got some help from a couple people on a Reef discussion board.
Updated: I made a few corrections after a helpful person from reef.org pointed out some identification mistakes.
Caesar Grunts and not Smallmouth Grunts - black tails
Longspine Squirrelfish and not Squirrelfish - white tips on dorsal spines
Sand Diver and not Inshore Lizardfish - dark spot on gill plate

Eco marine is a really great place to learn how to dive! We came with the plan to stay one week to make the Open Water Course - but we stayed three weeks there and made not only the Open Water but also the Advanced Divers Course because we enjoyed it that much!
