![]() Batwing Coral Crab Good evening friends, another late night dive with no coral spawning! But again Aimee’s group at the Sea Aquarium did see a bunch!! So guess where I am going to night? Yep, you guessed it, Aimee and I are diving together starting at 9:00 tonight and hopefully we will see something? While following coral researchers all around the reef last night just waiting for eggs, I spotted this guy wedged between the rocks wondering what was going on? This is a beautiful 10 inch Batwing Coral crab, it’s called this because of the bat design on top of his shell. These crabs are completely fearless of divers, you can lay right in front of them and they will just go about their business and if necessary go around you. It was another late night, I actually got home from my dive before Aimee, she came in at around 11:00 and just said good night! I am hoping we get to see some spawning tonight because tomorrow night I have to shoot a friends wedding on the West side of the island and again won’t be home till late.
Sorry not much for you all tonight, I still have so much to do before we leave. Hope everyone is well and enjoying their summer. Off to the ocean, Barry
