Nope. I was using the 17-40L, it simply couldn't survive the fish bowl.:shocked2: Holy crap! I'm sorry Luko. Did the lens survive?

Ok, great, I dived Busa Bora too very interesting site, typical of Bangka IMO half corals/half muck.we saw the Pontohi at a site called Busa Bora. What are you still looking to see @ Lembeh? How would you compare your recent trip to Ambon to Lembeh?
Unfortunately you would have to go back to Surabaya (Batavia airlines has for sure a Jakarta-Surabaya-Ambon route ... or at best, through Makassar with Lion air probably)Thanks Luko, whats the route to Ambon is it fairly direct from Bali? Im keen to see the Ambon Frogfish. (relatively new species found?)
Although I am not Wisnu, I'll reply to your question regarding Ambon where I dived not later than 3 months. I feel Lembeh is denser in terms of critters but on the other hand, Ambon sites display more viz and there's that sense of remoteness you won't get in Lembeh where there are often 2 diveboats already on the spot.
I like better going out in Kota Ambon for dinner too, you feel like you're participating to the island life while you are tucked in your resort in Lembeh.
Also for me one of the advantages about Ambon is the possibility to have GREAT coral dive sites on the south coast... and i mean their seafans are something !!!
