Good morning from the super HOT Caribbean!! I have some wild, “open for business” glowing Giant Star Coral Polyps for you all today that I found the other night at around 70 feet. Each one of these single polyps is about half inch in size and what makes this photo really cool is they are all open!…
Good morning friends, Stijn and I did fun night dive Sunday evening, he went in search of lionfish while I worked on more blue-light images. Near the end of the dive, Stijn frantically signaled me to come over and help him with a seven foot long green moray eel that was wrapped around his lionfish bucket.…
Good morning one and all, I suppose you have already figured out this is “Blue-Light Photo-Week”!!! Stijn showed up last evening around 7:00 and by 7:30 we were underwater and on our way. The very first thing I spotted was a little 4-inch Bandtail Puffer hiding from the night in a massive pile of sea-weed.…

Good morning friends, I have a goatfish for you today that really glows under blue-light and stands out on the reef at night like a sore thumb!

I spent a good part of yesterday getting ready for a blue-light night dive we did last night at Tugboat. I hired a security guard to watch our cars and invited Stijn to help search and even though the water was cold and the visibility wasn’t so great we still had a great time.…
Good morning from Curacao. I get a lot of emails asking for more seahorse photos so like a good little diver, here you go! This little pink beauty was found at a dive spot called “Small Wall” and to this day is still one of my favorite spots to explore.…
I have a little four inch Bandtail Puffer for your viewing pleasure today that I found buried in the sand on one of our many night dives. So many people ask me “what happens to the reef fish at night”?…

Good morning one and all, the top photo shows a healthy area or colony of super delicate, Clubtip Finger Corals right here on the Sea Aquarium house reef and the bottom photo shows what happens to them when an anchor is dropped on them for an extended amount of time!…
