We had one in Belize that would not leave one of the other divers alone, crew said it was trying to attach to the tank but I don't know.
 
haha nice, I had 2 come up and attack me off a reef at bout 90' off ft lauderdale. they kept tryin to take bites on me. got some good pictures outa it at least lol
 
i was leading a group of 4 of malta in the med and this ramora went to each in turn -tried to attach onto the fins.

i remained still when he came to me and he stuck on for about 10 secs then left.
 
LOL - I can relate. In North Carolina last weekend a remora decided it liked me more than I was comfortable with (especially since I was in a t-shirt and board shorts) and looked ridiculous trying to swat it away with the head of my canister light.

Because a good dive buddy points, laughs, and documents:
