Painted Elysia. I found another on a different site in the sand also. Normally I would expect to see these in amongst grasses or coral. Another diver did find two exhibiting trailing behavior.

Pelagic Tunicate/Pyrosome. I posted this on SB's Name That Critter for an ID. I have seen the smooth ones in Cozumel but this is the first with the white dots. I would say this one is many feet long (5-10?). Photo by my friend Scott who is learning to use an underwater camera in manual mode. I hope I am giving him good advice with no task overload.

Same Pelagic Tunicate/Pyrosome. My searches on the internet showed some with white dots but not this long.

Reticulated Brittle Star. I always see these in sponges and not in sand. It is also missing a limb. As I was photographing it, it buried itself in the sand.
