Cunningly disguised decorator crab Nr#1
Some of the things you might not see unless you look really really closely are this decorator crab.

Cunningly disguised decorator crab Nr#2
Now this one even our hawk-eyed DM Abdul hasn't spotted. One for the board by The Captain.

Ornate ghostpipefish
Just to show that there are ornate ghostpipefish in Pemuteran's 'Mucky Pirates Bay'

Robust ghostpipefish
Couple of Robust ghostpipefish to add to the collection in 'Mucky Pirates Bay'

Blue suckered octopus
To give you an idea this little octopuses size, well me proddy stick is marked off in inches.

Ode to pipefish by the Captain

Of Muck & Pirates in the Bay be found
Ghostpipefish by the bushel abound
Ornate, Robust swim around with glee
All await a photograph from Me

Garr ! 😉

Some of the decorator crabs in Mucky Pirates Bay are getting the art of camouflage down pat. And a teeny weeny blue suckered octopus make a house in a piece of discarded pipe.

Mucky Pirates Nights

Been incredibly busy the last few weeks with high season in full swing, so not much time to take new pics. However I did get some nice shots early in July while night diving Mucky Pirates Bay.
