Day 2 was a four-dive day, including a night dive. The highlights of the day: A Seahorse on the third dive and a feeding cuttlefish on the fourth dive.
A full dive report with lots of pictures can be found here. The dive report also includes links to two videos. One of a huge school of reef fish, and the other of the cuttlefish swimming.
But for those that don't want to navigate away, here are a few of my better/more interesting pictures:

Beaded Sea Anemone, Hetaractis aurora, with two Clark's Anemonefish, Amphiprion clarkii. Most of the anemones seem to be Magnificent Sea Anemones, so it was nice to spot something different.

Map Puffer, Arothron mappa. Not the best image, but a cool-looking fish anyway.

An unknown branching coral on the wall of Koh Bida Nok. This may be a similar-sounding refrain, but I thought it looked really cool.

The Broadclub Cuttlefish, Sepia latimanus. We "caught" it feeding when we dropped down. Unfortunately, I didn't have my camera going yet. It was amazing to watch, though.
