We have threads for Cats, Dogs, Raccoons and other land animals, but I've yet to see any on those who live in the sea, so let's see how this goes (just for something different).

11 sea creatures out of your worst nightmares.

Cheers.

That Bobbit worm looks like it came straight from a science fiction movie.

I think the water bear is cute.

There's some crazy life in the sea, that's for sure.

My vote is for the water bear, too. :~)

The mind is a weird and mysterious place

NICE THREAD!! :)

Thought they were all supercute in their own... erm... individual ways of course :)

I know these are not unknown to the majority (like many of those in Wiggo's posted article) but I'm very fond of them... the leafy sea-dragon and ALL of it's relatives too of course...

Never heard of it, but it's one of the most bizzare looking things I've ever seen :)

From the beautiful,

Close into shore Wiggo? *timid paddle in corrugated iron boots*

spotted porcelain crab...


(made one out of actual porcelain for a friend who's a crab nut - and his alsation ate it :/ lovely dog - bit ga-ga - failed police dog training miserably)

They have the most amazing feeding apparatus... erm - spotted porcelain crabs - not alsations...

Just check with the locals on what to look out for and where Annie, but you always have something here to watch out for (it keeps life interesting here I can tell you). ;-)

Cheers.

Snorkelling at Titikaveka Beach in the Cook Islands. Marine reserve so there are heaps of fish to see just paddling off the beach.

A rare Black Seadevil finally caught on video.

Read this bit...

IT’s got a face only a mother could love.

Thought "awwww... that's a bit harsh"

Then saw it :) That's some mother... :) I take my leg off to her... and possibly part of an arm too...

Yes, definitely.

Puff! and the yellow fish (picture is missing) apparently blew up and is no more.

Perhaps soon time to throw in the towel for the day.

But tomorrow is yet another day.

But then again Annie, even some of us have that same problem. ;-)

During my trips to the N.T. and northern Qld back in the 70's you found it very hard to see a croc in the wild, these days it's very hard not to see several them and now in places that they were never seen before.

Cheers.
