Had to nab a Queen Angel off the bottom. Noticed she was doing her best sleeping Parrot Fish impersonation of sleeping; which is of course, not good. she was respiring, but wasn't moving a bit and lying on her side in the little crookat the back of the reef. I didn't want to spook her away if she was doing bad so I asked Mike about it and he said I should go down and check her out. I kept an eye on her and she did start to move around so I figured I'd wait till the end of the dive and sure enough at the end of the dive she was back on the bottom. I didn't want to upset her mucus layer; I was able to hold her by her pectorl fins so I knew she was in bad shape. I Brought her up and Mike and Greg put her in a holding tank.

WHAT WE LEARNED: Double check your tank strap. oopsie
