One of the best dives I've had for under water beasties in a
long time!! This was another one of the dive where I decided to disappear on my
own (it's only a small wreck - can't get lost!), and it really paid off. As I
was moving down the anchor line, a school of jacks swarmed round me, so I
figured that there was some predator nearby. I wasn't expecting the large
barracuda (picture 1) waiting just under the
bottom of the anchor line! Descending inside the wreck, I saw some bright
colours on one of the hatches. On closer inspection, it was a zebra slug (picture
3), with another, smaller one the other side. Further inside, I found
another tiny zebra slug - maybe an inch or smaller. As I looked up from this, I
saw a large lionfish cruising around (the pictures are a little grainy as I was
in low light. Picture 11 is probably one of the
best). After this, there was a large hogfish lurking around, but he was too far
away for me. Maybe next time........
