Nice saturated colour on the coleman's shrimp. Not easy getting sharp focus on the free swimming pygmy sia. I have a blur one of a swimming pontohi pgymy...

it's a lucky shoot, did not expect it to swim off. luckily my eye is glued to the viewfinder at that moment.

the rest are some of the 'uncommon' critters found during the trip.

6) nudi


7) baby mimic - no horns yet


8) eel


9) black and white


10) mantis everywhere
