Moreton Bay Critters

I have just returned from a couple of dives in Moreton Bay (Just off Brisbane) and was shocked by the number of critters we came across!  Two juvenile Ornate ghost pipefish, a rough snout ghost pipefish, short pouch pygmy pipehorse and a flamboyant cuttlefish.  Not to mention the usual leopard sharks and shovel nose rays.  I'll take my camera next time!

Alor & Flores Images




I have recently returned from a trip aboard the Komodo Dancer which was cruising around Alor and Flores.  It was a great trip!  I found four Rhinopias two of each of R. frondosa (Including a very small juvenile) and R. eschmeyeri of which the female was clearly pregnant.   I also found a pair of velvet ghost pipefish and a couple of beautifully coloured thorny seahorses.  I also saw my first ever Mola Mola (Sunfish) but it was off in the distance and only passed by for a few seconds.  I have posted images form the trip on my website www.OceanRealmImages.com/gallery so check them out!
