the orange one at the top i'm not sure on the species but the others are monkeyfaced pricklebacks which i have caught up to 3 feet long(not with my hands though)
The very top one looks more like a Goby than an eel judging by the mouth and the line going though the eye . Better be careful with the stonefish too , the spine on their backs are extremely venomous , they are some of the most venomous fish in the ocean .
well arachnochicken, if they had been stonefish i wouldn't have tried to catch them with my hands fortunately for me, they are only sculpins and pretty much harmless:} i'm fairly well versed on our local fish and we don't have anything more venomous than the occasional scorpion fish (i've been fishing the bay here for the last 10 year for a living) so don't worry;
poppills, she is an australian cattle dog and is 2 years old this month
with that octopus
how did it feel to get bit?
i used to keep a octopus as a pet years ago...that thing was so smart that it scared me.......lucky the one i had wasn't the one to bite you
I love these pics and I agree..not ENOUGH! ;P I used to do this too here in California but I've never seen some of those critters, so that's very cool. I like the gobies and the stonefish look-alike. Hope you post more later in this thread!
