Blue speck in water column: ID

edasque · Oct 7, 2008

Hi all,

a couple of times, on the deco line in RI, I saw tiny specs of blue around me. They look exactly like chipped paints, very small, with no distinguishable features. I would think they are not organic if it weren't for the fact that they quickly swim away. Others have mentioned those to me.

Any idea ?

Erik,

The answer can be found in my response at the bottom of this thread:

Best regards,

Mark isn't it funny how we were just talking about this subject?
Al and I hit the U Boat on Sunday and there were considerably fewer of them than we had seen at the "Other Spot". On the upside though, we had about 20 Atlantic White Sided Dolphins playing around the boat. It was just us and "Canned Air" out there.

The (boat diving) season is quickly coming to a close, Arggghhhh.
