Really neat video. What is the fish with the exceptionally long tail?

At about 0m38s? Rabbitfish, Chimaera monstrosa

They usually live pretty deep, but at this time of the year they tend to come shallower. Especially after dark. It's quite popular to go looking for it, because we don't exactly see it every day. Besides, it looks pretty cool..

What are the sunburst-looking starfish called in Norwegian?

At 2m37s? Solstjerne, literally translated as sun star. Quite common around here.

EIDT: I'm a bit impressed that they got the sea rescue vessel as their dive boat :)

I remember seeing sun stars with 10 legs and more in amazingly many different colors in and near Narvik. Really neat!

Thanks FinnMom. It was a nice dive as well. We allways meet rabbitfish in this location this time of the year. Cool "Critters"

By the way: we are very lucky to have a good friend en the SAR boat. They always let us use the dive ladder to get out of the water. This time they invited us inn :)
