That was me. Never thought of a stargazer nearby. Interesting... I don't think it would be a lesser electric ray. I got zapped by a small one many years ago and it wasn't that strong.

Wow, Nice to hear of people being CHARGED UP--and now a Guitarfish sighting, very good!! Nice to meet fisheyeview yesterday, thanks for saying hello!! It's a little cold for the Diva and me and my sister; ultradiva at 72 F. But now I must get the housing for the new Canon S95 to be ready for 75 or higher..................Jenny, the carts are scattered about-not far from each other though--there were 3 nice Scrawled Filefish laying atop the carts. We saw a giant Horse Conch shell with an equally large Hermit in it--location deleted, as scubajim said,

from the wreck with the mirror, travel north east for 4 frog kicks and you will run into the carts...
I find it interesting that the stargazer, electric eel and lesser electric ray all put out the same 14.7 volt charge... It's like nature had its limit for body conducted electricity, and I find that shocking!... lol

I've only seen one guitar fish while diving and that was in the Georgia Aquarium: I'd like to see one in its natural setting. The dive in Atlanta aquarium is stupid expensive and I doubt I'll ever do it again (but it was worth doing once!!!).
Those photos of the guitar fish and lesser electric rays are all pretty neat. Interesting insight on the 14.7 volts too.

My wife Sandra wants to dive tommorow morning also....Any chance she could buddy up with you guys? I have to work on the next issue of sfdj.com ( the work part on the computer) which she just plays and takes pictures
Sure! I'm feeling very "compelled" about tomorrow ... I plan to bee-line straight to Baby Daddy. Actually feel like we should spend our entire dive in that area.
We always try to park in the same spot and the use picnic table closest to the shower by the playground. I drive a big white Buick Roadmaster sedan.
Look for the dude with the video camera. I wear snazzy red Ray Bans.
I think I will know Sandra when I see her - if she was at the proposed sanctuary meeting.
See you tomorrow!
