Skeleton Shrimp (Caprellidae)

Depth 40 feet or 12 meters of depth under water

 

I went back with a bit more patience. Spent most of a solo dive photographing this beauty. Cropped my image some, but original was pretty tight since I used a 210 equivalent combination. More shots to come!

Hypselodoris bullocki - Nudibranch (literally naked lung in Latin)

 

Date: April 29, 2018

 

Sunabe Seawall

 

Chatan-cho

 

Okinawa Prefecture

 

Japan

 

Depth 40 feet or 12 meters of depth under water

 

A prolific and reliably seen nudibranch, I am always greeted by them on my dives. They range in size from quite small to large. They have a tendenc to hold on with the caudal section (rear end) of their body and try to climb/find purchase with their rostral end (front part). This one was spotted on the way to the exit after 95 minutes at depth with 500psi, which any diver knows is when you see the best creatures!

Pygmy Seadragon (Kyonemichthys rumengani)

 

Date: May 20, 2018

Sunabe Seawall

Chatan-cho

Okinawa Prefecture

Japan

Depth 40 feet or 12 meters of depth under water

 

On this day, Shawn Miller and I went out looking for pygmy seahorse. On the way out i noticed this thready creature moving on a reef segment. It is clearly a tiny sea dragon. This photo coincided with the plankton spawn, so a recently hatched pipefish makes sense. Lovely young specimen in any case.

Two stages of the development of a SQUID are visible in the picture. These eggs are about 3mm in diameter and when the little squid inside has used up all the nutrients (all the yolk that is attached to it), it plops its suckers to the inside of the diaphragm and releases enzymes that will aid opening the shell, pushing through the opening - and a tiny new ALIEN of the DEEP is born :] Notice the CHROMATOPHORES already embedded in its skin and the tiny little SIPHON... BTW, the SQUID on the left is actually laying on its back...

Shortnose Boxfish (Ostracion nasus)

Depth 40 feet or 12 meters of depth under water

 

A sleeping adult Dusky Parrotfish (Scarus niger) sleeping. Sleeping parrotfish protect themselves from predators by creating a mucous bubble to sleep in. It keeps their delicious fishy odor out of the water so no predators come to eat them. They don't have eyelids, so they can't close their eyes. This fish was sleeping, and I was able to get a nice close shot without waking him up.
