Try looking for the SMB tied to it. But I am sure it is easier to search every bubble coral around Salu than looking for the invisible marker. Or was it at Sudong wreck? Cannot reveal too much. Maybe I should take it home for safe keeping.

I was just lucky to see it, don't think I can find it again if I go back to Salu. It is along the reef about 7m. This little guy seems to be eating something (the piece of purple leave). Macro stuff still better at Hantu. I am still searching for my first allied cowry.

No more 'showable' ones. Vis was really quite low, the 'metal ring' in photo 2 was just 1m away, so you can see the poor vis there. So cannot really get much of the wreck in photo. As for the macro stuffs, similar to other places with big sea fans (quite a lot around 1ft across), cup coral, some small fish, a few 1ft snappers which quickly disappear once I got close. Did not find any small critter like nudi, shrimp, crab, sea horse.
