Fishy friday picture quiz - can you ID these reef fish?

Under the cunning disguise of a fishy picture quiz I'm hoping that someone can help me ID these fish. I believe that most are from either the Maldives or the Great Barrier Reef. For a cheeky bonus point ;-) which of these start their lives amongst the mangroves before migrating to the reefs.

Please comment below or on Twitter.

I'm not a marine biologist but I've listed my best guess in the comments section. The one's that I'm particularly having trouble with are C, D and E.

Thanks very much, your help is much appreciated. Paul

A. Quite an easy one to get you started - 'just say what you see'! 
B. One of the worlds most famous fish - well camouflaged

C. Now they get a little trickier...

D. Looks like a fishy mint humbug!


E. A purplish fish with a yellow spot on its back.


F. Another of the 'mint humbug' family and fairly distinctive
G. Purple and yellow - like a fishy rhubarb and custard
