It sound like a type of sponge to me as well but I could be wrong. Perhaps maybe a fungus. Rob

You woudn't believe the number of search results for resorts in Hawaii. This place was a smaller place and he even had his own website. I wish I still had his e-mail and access to his site. Perhaps one of these days I will find it. Rob

Thank you Seamaiden... Hopefully I'll make contact with him again. Rob

Hello Everybody, I'm looking for a Hawaiian reefer who owns or runs his own resort. He was interested in some of my corals and I lost his e-mail about 6 months ago.... If you know of any or are one of them please contact me. Thank you, Rob

Very interesting monkeyboy and galleon, thanks for the info and replies. It's a very interesting topic indeed. If I find any more info I'll post it. Thx. Rob

Hello Everyone, I remember reading an article (maybe through reefs.org, reefcentral.com, or reefland.com library articles) that studied sps growth in the caribbean somewhere where they hooked up a 9 volt power source to an electric wire grid where they had attached sps frag to and studied their...

Here's a link to my undercontruction shark dive page with a small mpeg on it. http://www.coralsandbar.com/sharkdive.html Rob

Hi Ja, Nice pics!!! Very cool! Sounds like you had some nice and incredible research time! I'd be a little more leary myself, snorkeling versus scuba diving. I'd rather be under the water versus on top of it. Yeah, the great white thing would be awesome. I have to admit it took me about 5...

I definitely had much respect for all the sharks down there, I can tell you that. There were at least easily 20 black tip reef sharks. I am in the process of downloading an mpeg video of a small portion of the video tape that I have. I can at least post a link or the pic on my site so far...

Well, I got back late last night from my Bahamas trip. And all I gotta say is that the shark dive was absolutely awesome!!! The trip out to "Shark Alley," was rough. Not to mention the pit that everyone had in their stomachs didn't help either. It was just another couple, me, photographer...

Hi Firefishpat, Thanks for the info. I'm sure my smells of urine, etc. will throw the sharks off anyway! LOL! I'll probably even take my necklace off as well. I did notice barracuda are quite intrigued by flashy metal objects too! I have seen nurse sharks in St. Croix before. I have also...

Hi Firefishpat, Yeah, I will definitely be careful... I imagine there is some difference with snorkeling and swimming off shore versus diving. Seems like, and based on what I've seen on Discovery they did a study based on snorkeling and splashing around on the surface versus diving. The...

Thanks Atlantis, I've have to look into Stuart's Cove a little more. I am going to have to check the map out to see where New Providence is from Freeport (where I am stayin) on Grand Bahama Island. I was looking at Stuart's Cove and checking out their mini-subs. They look pretty cool, and...

Hi KCinminni, I definitely will if I get the opportunity. I am trying to find out out of the choices I have 3/4 definitely do them. I want to find out if the one I am unsure of does it or not. They seem the most reputable. A couple that has done it for 25 years dive experience, 15 in the...

Thanks Medicineman for the advice. Sounds like you had a cool experience! Nice pic, Mouse! Thx. Rob
