    Can we take things from the ocean?

    I am a new diver. I just went on my first ocean dive post certification and while I was diving found a dead sand dollar and a Sheepshead fish jaw with teeth.

    Instabuddy vs. Dive Safety

    Hello All - I'm a relatively new diver, but it seemed appropriate to post in this sub forum... I'm a safety and systems oriented person.

    No deco time proximity.

    I am having a long time discussion with a buddy about the no deco time shown in a computer. How close can you get to the zero time while diving, without risking too much. Some opinions are to go up when you reach the 10 min mark, some consider the 5 minute mark.
