 Mating Ocellate Swimming Crabs Good evening from Curacao! I had a wonderful night dive last night, it was one of those non-stop “finding cool stuff every minute” kind of dives, you divers know what I mean. Aimee and Emily got a table on the beach in front of the Dive Bus shack and ordered dinner just as we were heading in the ocean just a few feet from her table. We found one of the coolest sleeping parrotfish I have ever seen and it wasn’t the fish itself that was so unique it was where he decided to sleep for the night that was so cool, I will send it soon. We found countless octopus, eels of every kind, “and a few out hunting”, giant coral crabs, these mating crabs you see here and dozens and dozens of other wonderful things it was a blast. These two mating Ocellate Swimming Crabs could have cared less I was there! I am sure the larger male crab had spent a good part of the evening finding a mate and wasn’t ready to let her go! If she moved, he moved, I thought they made a nice couple? I am doing another dive here again in about an hour so I need to get a move on!
I have to go in at 6:15 am tomorrow for my eye surgery, Aimee will most likely send your photo out to you when she can find time, I am sure I will be in bed!
Have a great evening and fun day tomorrow, see you soon (no pun intended) Barry
