a meter-ish diameter pacific octopus on the side of a shipwreck, cautiously but curiously examining the bubble blowing alien creature in front of it.
a vibrant pink nubibranch, probably of the flabalinna family, but can't find my notes for this one.
a dashingly bright hermit crab, also on the side of the shipwreck.
a spotted boxfish, which has several colormorphs (black and white is not uncommon), but one of my favorite fish in the local wrecks and coral, with it's bluish purple body, yellow and white top and striking green eyes.
you'll never know the vibrancy this world truly contains until you overcome your basic fears, and accept the embrace of the sea, to witness the dazzling spectacles she reserves for the bold.
