@MotherOfRays making great use of the @spotx_ @vemcoteam triggered camera trap. Awesome footage of one of Jonis big tagged rays, even showing off the tag in question!!
#FlatSharkFriday Field Update - Week 3/4. This week we finally got to test out the first field prototype of the @spotx_ @vemcoteam acoustic tag triggered underwater camera trap 🙌 and oh, boy did it deliver! Here is one of our tagged boys, showing his good side!
We've been working on something exciting for all our #BRUV customers. Check out the video below

The Smalltooth sand tiger is the perfect example of how appearances are deceiving. At first sight, a 4-foot-tall animal full of sharp teeth. The reality is that all they transmit is peace and a feeling of being in front of a prehistoric animal. @felipe_ravina

A beautifully photogenic pteropod (sea butterfly). Hard to wrap your head around the fact that this is technically a type of snail.

Portrait mode. The face of the common (weedy) #seadragon, Phyllopteryx taeniolatus, doesn’t need any makeup as it has some spectacular natural patterns and coloration. Check out that hairstyle! No wonder it is a favorite species of the #greatsouthernreef

Wait - aren't zebra mussel the big problem? Nope - it's #quagga mussels that are wreaking the most havoc in the #greatlakes these days. There are quadrillions (that's 15 zeros!) of quaggas down there, and they're changing how our lakes work.

These #cisco are hungry! With declining native zooplankton in the #greatlakes (thanks mussels!) these #lakemichigan cisco have adapted to eat invasive zooplankton and small fish like these #alewives. Cisco were once almost totally gone from Lake MI -amazing to see them rebounding

Another bucket list fish ticked off! The protected Ballina Angelfish (Chaetodontoplus ballinae) lives on the deep water reefs surrounding Balls Pyramids, Lord Howe Island. Rather rare and elusive, I finally managed to see one! 😎 – at Lord Howe Island, New South Wales
