Thought about making a whole new thread but screw it I’ll just post pics here. All with a GoPro 5 without light (left in car opps).

Another different starfish

This parrotfish had its eyes on a select piece of rock and didn’t mind squeezing by me to get it.

Don’t know what was up here but looked to be getting cleaned and swam away regularly.

Baby trigger fish eating off the rock

Found this carcass I’m guessing it’s from one of the boats.

Eel peaking his head out

Two wrasse I believe are mating (swimming up into water column twisting around each other)

I went last weekend the current was ripping. How was it today?

 

[Nick Steele]

Wasn’t too bad in my mind. Did you dive it at high tide?

 

[ScubaJCBS]

yeah day and night dive but even the people that dive there a lot said the current was unusually high due to the rains I guess

Interesting only have 4 dives here but snorkel it often and haven’t seen that. Good to know thanks!
