Thanks once again Sami for the photos of another one of your trips, shows me a lot about the places I dream about visiting. The range of tropical fish species surprised me as I thought the waters where more temperate [South Queensland].
Looks like you had a ball with friends, good food and beer

[Mark Harris]

Thanks for another really nice report to read Sami. It must be a wonderful experience to visit a legendary place like Tokara.

Greg, I would guess that Tokara (and elsewhere in northern parts of the Ryukyu Islands) is pretty much the northern limit for some of those tropical species?

[Luke Wyrsta]

Nice work Sami 

Mark: Almost, just to north, the Kagoshima Prefecture & Tangeshima also hold both GT and Dogtooth. Pretty much the northernmost limit, as you mention.
