This Hawksbill Turtle swam past just as I had taken a macro reef shot at F8, so the quick snap here looks like it was on a night dive, but it wasn't....¸> <((((º> .....Canon G9
Red-dotted Coral Crab (Trapezia cymodoce). During the day, they hide deep in the coral, like this one. At night they climb up to the edges and spread their arms to feed on plankton...¸> <((((º> ....Canon G9 & Inon UCL-165's
"Come nearer, I don't bite, well not that much". Buddy decides that is close enough for the shared portrait shot...¸> <((((º> ....Canon G9

Glossodoris pallida, white to the eye, but when flashed the transparency and colours appear....¸> <((((º> .....Canon G9 & Inon UCL-165
This tiny coral crab (Cymo melanodactylus) is so fury, it's more like a teddy bear than a crab. It was nicely posed like this when I found it and didn't dive for cover when I started snapping away, like most critters do..¸> <((((º> ..Canon G9 & lenses
Just as I found this Fringed Blenny (Mimoblennius cirrosus) it darted in a hole and would only peep out every so often to see if I was still there. Which of course I was, since I wanted a close up shot. ...¸> <((((º> .....Canon G9 & Inon UCL-165's
Flatworm (Pseudoceros cf scintillatus) out for a crawl....¸> <((((º> ...Canon G9 & Inon UCL-165's

This friendly Smalescale Sandperch (Parapercis robinsoni) started to follow me and came right up to the camera. I think it was hoping that I would disturb the sand and it would find something to eat....¸> <((((º> .....Canon G9
A tiny but beautiful Thuridilla indopacifica...¸> <((((º> ....Canon G9 & stacked Inon UCL-165
Nudibranch (Hypselodoris carnea) posing nicely....¸> <((((º> .....Canon G9 & Inon UCL-165

This Rose Petal Bubble Shell (Hydatina physis) is the Marilyn Monroe of nudibranchs. "I wanna be loved by you, just you,
and nobody else but you, I wanna be loved by you, alone!
Boop-boop-de-boop!"..¸> <((((º> ..Canon G9 & Inon UCL-165
If you haven't seen or found one of these little Sphaeromatidaes when diving, then you haven't been looking closely enough. LOL! ..¸> <((((º> ...Canon G9 & stacked Inon UCL-165's
Nudibranchs enjoying a cuddle. (Chromodoris sp. 20 per Indo-Pacific Nudibranchs & Sea Slugs by Gosliner, Behrens & Valdés)...¸> <((((º> ...Canon G9 & stacked Inon UCL-165
