I saw one of those eels under the little bridge last year and had to ask around as well--it's somewhere earlier in this thread.

tibenmiami, gorgeous shots of the jawfish---looks like you're going to give CoolTech a run for the money!

It's all good! The better quality of pictures on this thread, the more interest it inspires to keep BHB as a protected area!

You are getting some great shots-now on to the nudibranchs!

I did some research on the worm eel, once I knew what it was. Apparently some of them actually camouflage themselves to look like venomous sea snakes. So I don't feel bad that I was "fooled" into thinking it was a snake. That's what Mother Nature intended!

Yes, I can see where that would be a problem in the habitat of the Sea Snake: "Warm coastal waters from the Indian Ocean to the Pacific Ocean..."
