You're so lucky... most of the nemerteans I see are <1cm. I think there's a 1m Cerebratulus in a pickle jar somewhere...LeslieH:

Anything it wants!
Can't refuse that offer.ringojcp:
Here's my first mystery critter. If I remember correctly, the photographer said he took the pictures in about 200' up off Alaska. I didn't take the pix but I don't know who to credit.

Yes, the crab shack is a neat place to eat. You can dive off the coast here at gray's reef with several of the local dive shops. You can dive the shores too if you want to swim in the dark. But you will probrably find some civil war artifacts if you dive around the historic forts. Or, if you want to die, jump into the ogeechee river and hunt for megaladon and mastadon fossils..
Indeed... shore am glad t'git that'n sorted out though, I am... Thanks Ringo.archman:

Well, Ringo & Arch are both right. Ringo got the correct latin name but it's not a scorpion fish. It's in its own monotypic family Rhamphocottidae which was split off from the Cottidae (sculpins) and the common name is grunt sculpin.
