Damaged, Dying Brain Coral Colony, Hard Coral

Good morning friends, most of you divers, including myself, would probably look at this photo and feel sure that it was a victim coral bleaching – correct?? Well, it’s not. This is what happens to any type of coral if it falls into sand, the white part is dead and the brown is alive.…

Giant Green Moray Eel

Good morning from overcast Curacao! We have had a few days of much cooler weather but almost no rain, it’s just teasing us like it always does!
Our dog Indi is doing better, her two large crop circles are pretty dried up, but now the hair needs to grow back in the places that they shaved her, she’s not quite show dog material at the moment.…

Larval Blue Tang, Acanthurus coeruleus
Hey gang, I’m having a quiet three days off and pretty much just hanging out at the house keeping an eye on Indi and her weird skin rash. The heat here right now is unreal to say the least, these are by far the hottest days we have had this year making it almost impossible to get anything done outside.…

Good morning friends, I had a fairly quiet weekend at home keeping my eye on our dog Indi and her terribe skin rash. I did take her to the vet and I am giving her pills and creams but after 3 days, I still do not see much difference.…

Male Rosy Razorfish, Xyrichtys martinicensis

These fish are just too cool for words, not only are super-colorful, but they have the ability to dive under the sand if bothered.…

Goldentail Moray Eel, Gymnothorax Moray

Good morning all, this morning I discovered that our dog Indi has a serious skin infection and rushed her to the vet. You know it’s bad when your vet says it’s something they have never seen before!…
Banded Tube-Dwelling Anemone, Cnidarians
Good morning from the Caribbean. I have a wild looking “Photoshopped” Banded Tube-Dwelling Anemone for you all today that I shot on a macro night dive at Playa Jeremi a few weeks ago with the Smithsonian aboard the Chapman.…

An Unusual Gorgonian

Good morning friends, I have a wild looking gorgonian for you all today that reminded me immediately of Medusa and her wild hair made of snakes! I have never seen a gorgonian that had arms like this, maybe it was because the water was so calm and it felt it could let it’s hair down, so to speak.…
