Florida-dwelling sometimes-artist, kinda-photographer. Nefarious, notorious sunfish devotee. My heart belongs to the sea.
Ichthyologist soon-to-be, hopefully.
Activity not guaranteed. We'll see what the tide brings in, aye?

#fishmas day 17 + 18!
Dwarf seahorses are truly tiny, with adults only reaching a meagre 2 inches.
Meanwhile, lined seahorses are monsters in comparison. Occasionally reaching a mighty 7in, they will consume anything small enough to fit into their mouths- this includes small fish.

Ancinus depressus, the flat pillbug, for day 16 of #crustmas!
This is a wonderfully rectangular, flat isopod that likes the sandy, shelly substrates of nearshore marine habitats, particularly beaches.
When threatened, it rolls into a ball. It's flat, broad shape means it can only try it's best.
