Squat lobster, normally find them in feather stars or in-between the ridges on large barrel sponges

 
Those are some great shots. Where were you diving and what is your camera setup? And Geaux Tigahs!
 
Thanks all--I've got a good one of a hairy squat lobster(in the Philippines) but didn't know one of these existed...:)....

Guitarcrazy----you must be from down south or something, lol.....Thanks for the kudos....I just changed about 3 months ago for this trip to an Olympus E-PL10 with a AOI housing....Got a AOI Pro 9 WA lens with a +12D macro lens for close ups....kept my same tray and S&S 110A strobes....Almost forgot!!----mounted a GoPro(with a Flip 10 kit) on top of it with a 2500 Sola video lite.....LOVE that setup(wife actually made me go the GoPro thingy)....Can kick on the video and come in and take my still shots at the same time--ie on ONE dive, saw +50 green/hawksbill turtles on a wall and actually got 32 of them on video----while getting several hundred still shots of them--AMAZING...

EDIT...forgot to say we were in Manado, N Sulawesi, Indonesia....great diving...
 
Thanks for the follow up. I live in Montana but grew up in the Baton Rouge area. My daughter went to LSU for grad school. You got some good shots and some critters I have never seen.
 
What part of Montana??...wife and I were in Bozeman for a week the end of Sept '21visiting Yellowstone/Tetons----since overseas travel was limited(corona virus) at that time....VERY beautiful up there....
 
I am in Great Falls, about 2.5 hours from Bozeman if you drive like a Montanan.
