26 MAY - NIGHT DIVE
Sea urchin. Those spines are like porcupine quills. Have not Identified this one yet
Cuttlefish come in all sizes . . .
. . . this one is very tiny in the background
Can you spot the octopus?
Small crab I have not had time to identify

Three views of Reef stone fish or stone fish
It is a carnivorous ray-finned
It lives on reef bottoms
| |
It is the most venomous known fish in the world.
Anyone with kids and a DVD player probably thinks s/he knows all there is to know
What s/he may not know is that the heroes of "Finding Nemo" are actually called false anemone fish.
True anemone fish, Amphiprion percula, are nearly identical,
There are 28 known species of anemone fish,
I was once told/read that TRUE CLOWN FISH
Imagine my surprise and delight to run across the exception,
Amphiprion percula, the true Percula Clown fish or Clown Anemone fish,
I'm not certain if this is a squid, octopus or cuttlefish; IT'S SO SMALL I had to really crop and enlarge this image.
