Good evening all, how was your day? Mine of course was busy and fun starting out with doing some more photos from inside the sub at around 400 feet. We did about a two hour tour looking for the most beautiful scenic areas we could find and once located we would stop and do little photo shoots along the way. We found two big Lionfish hanging out together at around 185 feet under a giant anchor and also found the new Nicky fish today at around 300 feet and not just one, lots of them. Later in the afternoon we did a fun deep dive down to 132 feet. We swam straight out in front of the substation and down we went as I wanted to check out some sponges and corals I saw from the sub earlier that morning. On our way back up to safer depths I found this Graysby Sea Bass sitting inside a Netted Barrel sponge being cleaned by a Sharknose Goby. Normally this Sea Bass spends all day chasing and eating smaller fish but would never think about eating this little guy. This Sharknose Goby has a free “you can’t eat me card” as this is a cleaner fish and without them we would have a lot of sick fish on the reef! Talk about a great home as well, it’s a sponge with a million dollar view! I laid here for quite awhile and watched, there is just so much activity happening on the reef, you just need to slow down and look!
That’s about it, I have to work tomorrow as well, we have a family of four doing the sub at 10:00 but will probably go do something fun after.
Have a great weekend, Barry
