Flatworms

That Persian carpet flatworm is one of the most spectacular creatures I've seen. Gorgeous photo too! How big?

I think it is beautiful. Great pic. Hell, most people wouldn't find it to begin with, let alone get a picture like that.

From Florida keys. Lined flat worm. Not as dramatic but pretty.

Great shots Bob. I always enjoy the diversity of the ocean.
Steve C., that looks similar to one we see in CA that a late friend of ours liked to call "chocolate drizzle flatworms".

About 8 or 10 cm long. Really nice to watch them swimming as well!

Oh man that's huge! I assumed they must be wee tiny things.

A couple from the Philippines


This is one of my favorite pics, lighting, focus and pose all came together.






Some other flatworms - my recollection is that they all came from Indonesea

Another Persian Carpet Flatworm, taken last October in Mactan Ph.

These are my favorites. They can be hard to capture as they are usually moving along the bottom a lot faster than your average nudibranch.
