I think lots of things inverts do are cool but not great at thinking to capture much so below are just a couple of pedestrian micro brittle star items...

Video of micro brittle star spawning:




Micro brittle star "monkeying" around in a sinularia (should've gone for a video but didn't):

OH, WAIT -- I also like this shrimp with molt in QT from long ago for some reason:

Is that a Florida crown? (Melongena corona)

Drop a small live clam or oyster up front by the glass and watch the magic that straw faced baddy can do.

This is a group of those crowny boys chowing down on a crab at my local kayak launch.

awesome, agreed on never capturing the coolness.. these are things that you would never get to notice during a dive

yeah its a Florida crown..... well was... annoying past of being out of the state for a year for work, hired 3 local garbage companies to watch over it while gone... long story short all those garbage companies never showed up, even once.... karma rocks though, all 3 out of business as of today
