I have got back into scuba diving again and have taken up photography. Can anyone suggest any good resources book or net to identify sponges corals fish etc.

Yes I have multiple editions of grants (including 2 first editions) to cover a lot of fish but it misses a lot of the little tackers that are great to take pics of.

Cheers

Here is a better one, You can go here and sort by country/state/fresh/salt etc -

If you select australia in Information by Country / Island and then tick each box for "Extended checklist / Show photos / Show all records" it will show nearly ALL fish in aus (takes awhile to load due to 4862 australian water species listed)
