It not only carries the name of a KwaZulu-Natal recreational diver, but bears testament to his many decades of spending time in the ocean to acquaint himself with various species of fish that inhabit the local coastline.
Dennis King, 78, who loves being underwater because he feels at home, has a species of angel fish named after him.
Its scientific name is Apolemichthy kingi, but it is commonly known as the tiger angelfish because of its distinct black and gold vertical stripes, which was discovered by King during his many voyages of discovery underwater.

Aliwal Shoal, one of two Marine Protected Areas (MPA) on the KwaZulu-Natal South Coast, is a world-renowned dive site attracting adventurers looking to swim with hundreds of sharks of varying species, including black tips and ragged-tooth sharks.
It has emerged that Aliwal Shoal is also home to several highly endangered shortfin devil rays that use the area as a cleaning station.
Michelle Carpenter, a KZN diver and PhD student specialising in sharks and rays, discovered the Aliwal Shoal devil ray cleaning station in 2020. At the time, she didnât realise how many rays lived in and frequented Aliwal Shoal.
