I'm a Fish!
Another aandtsociety collecting trip.

This time down to the south port seaway on the gold coast and it was a very good day.

This time we all got there a bit earlier and to have a BBQ off the back of Karls truck before we got in to start collecting something for our tanks.

The weather was spot on and the vis was around 15 metres.

There quite a few people in the water on this day and it was obvious why.

There were 7 of us there for collecting and 4 for the beach and relaxation on this trip and all joined in on the BBQ especially the ones collecting to get that extra bit if energy for the hunt.

The water we were collecting in varied from 15 feet to 50 feet as we went on a lengthy drift snorkel with the in coming tide to cover as much area as possible.

The needs of everyone were very diverse for there aquariums on this day and the pictures are of only a few species that were caught that day.

We mainly only take pics of the nicest creatures caught and the more common, we don't bother with pics of them normally.

Two of us were there only for inverts, one for some varied algaes; two for some fish foods (cunji, etc) and the other two had freshly set up tanks, so they would take anything, so we all got into it, had a ball as we caught heaps of stuff for each other.
