Blue-spotted ribbontail ray perfectly poised in a coral nook

Blue-spotted ribbontail rays are a fairly small ray, fond of hiding inside ocean cavers, under reef ledges or in shipwreck debris. They are easily sighted because of their electric blue dots and equisite blue streaked tail. These enchanting rays are found in much of the indian ocean and western pacific. They follow the tide and hunt on the sandy flats before returning to their hiding nooks.

Octopus prints

Dazzling octopus camoflage

Octopus displaying brilliant russet red and white colours. Print of an octopus, displaying brilliant russet red colours, perched by corals. Octopuses have pigment cells consisting of three bags filled with different colors, which are adjusted at will. Coloration reflects the octopus mood. White is for fear, red is for anger, and brown is the usual colour. Combined with their comoflage abilities, the results are dazzling.

Green turtle and remoras, bedtime companions

Green Turtle sleeping beneath a coral reef with two Remora for company. Remora often become permanent companions of green turtles. The name Green Sea Turtle is not derived from the colour of its shell which is normally brown or olive, but rather green fat that is usually found beneath their upper shell. Green Sea Turtles can be found in tropical and subtropical seas worldwide.

Bigfin reef squid deep in the darkness

Bigfin reef squid tend to be more active during the night. Despite the fact that they tend to prefer near the shoreline or alongside reefs they are often found at depths up to 100m, tending to keep deeper during the day. They feed on an array of marine life, usually preying upon prawns, fish and crustaceans.
