Near the end of our dive, we came across a large "field" of wrasses, all fighting one another among the rubble at the bottom of the Lembeh Strait, North Sulawesi, Indonesia.  The wrasses would dart around the bottom until, suddenly, two would lock their jaws to wrestle for a few moments.  Then the two would part, and each would rocket and dive along the bottom, apparently seeking another competitor.
