Seahorses and Octopus Filled Dives

Seahorses and Octopus Filled Dives

Izumi Kawai and her friend Miyoko Kawasaki recently visited us and had great dives with Naomi and Jhoe (their dive guide). One of the most exciting part from their dives was when Jhoe found a pair of stick pipefish mating. The pair attached their body together for couple of minutes and after that they separated. Other critters that they encountered were Harlequin Shrimp, Tiger Shrimp, Algae Octopus, Blue Ring Octopus, Yellow Barred Jawfish out from its hole, different kind of baby Seahorses, Wonderpus Octopus, Yellow Bargibanti Pygmy Seahorse, and Pontohi Pygmy Seahorse.
