but these new technologies make old sonar look like a model-T next to a late model Ferrari. On the other hand - I work closely with a lot of people in the military and I can't see them NOT raising objections if they thought these strandings were attributable to operational manuvers. I honestly...

I suppose the florida location might make it cheaper but up here in the NE they, along with other exotics, are expensive.

It really is hit or miss... I have been diving in St. Thomas where vis was 4-5 feet (usually after heavy rains where the muddy water settles on the coral forcing the coral to ooze, whcih turns into a lot of white mucky stuff in the water), but at other times the vis can be 80+. Usually vis is...

It's unlikely that the fish were let go... rather it's more likely that a pair mated and the small fry were washing into the ocean during a aquarium water change.

Those fins look pretty clean!

Alright folks... I've got a question for residents of the Utila, Roatan, and Guanaja: I want to go diving there but my GF doesn't dive. Are the beaches mostly white sandy beaches or what? She says you guys have pythons, boas, and salt-water crocs... is this true?

We had something like this happen in the BVI's about ten years ago but with Sea Urchins. One year there were a normal amount and the next there were thousands and pretty much all of the very shallow (less than 30 feet) coral was eaten. After a year or two went by the sea urchin population...

You will love it! Good Luck! I wish I had been certified that young.

This is killing me... I have a chance to dive Monterey this weekend but it's just too cold for my taste. Thanks for the photos... once I get some dry suit experience/cert I'll be sure to dive out there.
