Groupers are absolutely enormous, the size of their mouth is astonishing. But I'm most afraid of barracuda and moray eels, both of them can deliver a really nasty bite. I still have a scar on my right arm from a moray bite through my wet suit many years ago. Nasty critter...

I made the mistake of wearing my Rolex Submariner on a dive in the Caribbean, and a really big barracuda was attracted by my nice shiny watch. I figured out what was happening and stuffed it into my swim trunks pocket. I actually like barracuda broiled with lemon, but this was a big one and might have had ciguaterra toxin, so I just wanted him to go away.
