Soldier key, I always go there and look at the rics and all the corals.

Just PLEASE do not take any of the rics, or the other corals for that matter. It is pretty painful to a native reefer, who dives to his favorite island/fishing spot, and sees all the corals gradually disappearing.

no prob sulfer.
I lived in the bahamas on a small island and we would spearfish very lightly so there would always be plenty and every now and again some boats would come from nassau and catch everything they could get and whipe out the reefs at least the fish would all return in a few months with no hunting pressure.

Ricordea are a ways offshore. And usually in areas where no commercial dive boat goes.

How deep were those shots taken?

I am planning several snorkel trips with my son this summer and don't want to take him to deep spots. It's his first time snorkeling

This is not in snorkel territory. They are in 25 to 30 feet.
