Finally, after almost 2 years of diving the Lembeh Strait and not seeing this critter with my own eyes, I got to see it and got some footage: THE POISON OCELLATE OCTOPUS (Octopus mototi). As if that wasn’t enough, a day later an always welcome little fella showed up: THE HAIRY OCTOPUS (Octopus sp.). Of course there are lots more critters to see in the latest episode, check it out!

Critters of the Lembeh Strait | Episode 14/2014
In this latest video, check out the Nembrotha rutilans in the midst of eating a tunicate – it reminds us of drinking a milkshake through a straw! There’s also some spectacular footage of a Melibe papillosa – truly a strange nudibranch – and a frogfish waving its lure in the hopes of catching a meal.
Vor dem Tauchgang Testbild schiessen!
Leere oder sogar gar keine Batterien im Blitzt oder in der Kamera, keine Speicherkarte in der Kamera, den Hot-Schuh nicht richtig angeschlossen, Gahäuseknöpfe sind nicht in der richtigen Position, Objektivdeckel auf dem Objektiv – Jedes einzelne kleine Problem kann zur völligen Frustration unter Wasser führen, weil wir das Problem nicht beheben können ohne aufzutauchen und das Gehäuse zu öffnen. Wenn du ein Testbild machst bevor du deinen Tauchgang beginnst, kannst du Dir sicher sein das alles funktioniert. Gewöhne Dir an ein Testbild des Objektivdeckels zu machen nachdem du deine Kamera eingebaut hast und du siehst sofort ob alles in Ordnung ist. Falls nicht, hast du noch die Möglichkeit den Fehler an Land zu beheben.
Critters of the Lembeh Strait | Episode 12/2014
This week’s video of Lembeh critter goodies features superb close-up footage of a broadclub cuttlefish mom delicately placing her eggs in a coral patch and a gorgeous pink paddleflap rhinopias just being its fabulous self. Also take a moment to appreciate the glimpses into the world of super-macro, difficult or impossible to see with the naked eye, such as a tiny commensal shrimp aerating its eggs and, right at the start of the video, the way a messmate pipefish’s camouflaged eyes move as it surveys its environment. If you love nudibranchs, there is something for you as well. Enjoy the Critters of the Lembeh Strait!
