A nice lil dive at Fushi Haa…

Drumroll please………

This is either a fairly common octopus in a juvenile stage…or an extremely rare mimic octopus normally found in areas like Indonesia.

Any experts out there can tell me?

Depth was around 5m on a sandy bottom. Size pictured here was about 10cm but this was as close as I could get as it immediately withdrew when I tried.

A really rarely found fish

This is an Indian Ocean Waspfish (Ablabys binotatus). Part of the scorpionfish family apparently so they can also inject venom when harrassed. This is the first I have ever found in my life so I was well chuffed today.

More macro

I reckon I have found a sweet little spot for macro photography on the House Reef. Now all I need is a $200 macro lense!
