great fish id software May 8, 2008
D. Kacavas (ME)
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
At first I thought the software was too limited in its id's. But then I did the tutorial (yes, I should have done that first) and found it was great, with id's for many many spieces, and many phases (juvenile etc) and great tools to find the fish to id it. The dvd is really nice too!
I take my lap top on dive vacations already so this is much more convenient than having to also bring my big heavy Reef Fish ID book.
