Mudskippers: Gobies that leave the Ocean

Biology, Critters, housereef, Lembeh, ResortBy Serge AbourjeilyNovember 30, 2014Leave a comment

Dive, Dive, Eat, Dive, Dive, Eat, Download Photos, Sleep … The Lembeh Dive Day mainly consists of Diving. Because People that come to Lembeh mainly want two things: Critters & Photos. But there is also some really cool Non-Diving Critters to be seen. Besides Tarsiers, Insects, Birds and others there are even Fish to be seen…

Melibe Colemani in Lembeh Straits

Melibe colemani in Lembeh

Biology, Critters, LembehBy Serge AbourjeilyNovember 24, 2014Leave a comment

We found it. In Lembeh. Yeeeha! No joke: Last week NAD-Lembeh found the Melibe colemani in Lembeh Strait. Even though some of our guides previously said, that he had already seen it … well we did not really believe as we have not seen photos. Sorry guys, we were wrong. But now we have photos and videos to prove 😉 This…

Ptereleotris grammica

The Lined Dart Fish: In the deep you’ll find a heap

Critters, Dive Center, Photography, Rebreather, ResortBy Serge AbourjeilyNovember 24, 2014Leave a comment

Like the magnificent Shrimp Goby or the Purple Fire Goby, the Lined Dartfish is one of the spectacular Goby species to be seen in Lembeh Strait that usually are found “a bit deeper”. And while the first two can be seen already from 25 meters downwards you are more or less lucky if you see a…

Hohoho … it’s Rhinotime again

Critters, LembehBy Serge AbourjeilyNovember 22, 2014Leave a comment

It is late November again, Christmas is coming closer again … and again we found a new Rhinopias in Lembeh Strait. This time it is a juvenile Weedy Scorpionfish (Rhinopias frondosa) – red colour and still just over the size of a matchbox. We’ll try to keep it secret as long as possible and of course…

UW Photo Tips: Photographing Flasher Wrasses

Critters, Photography, UW Photo TipsBy Serge AbourjeilyNovember 21, 2014Leave a comment

For UW Photographers Flasher Wrasses are very popular and hated subjects at the same time. Because they are very beautiful but also very tricky to shoot and demand a lot of skill and patience. The Flasher Wrasses swim in the water column, frequently change speed and direction and the males display their beautiful colour pattern…

The long gun: SIGMA 150mm Macro on APS-C

PhotographyBy Serge AbourjeilyNovember 8, 2014Leave a comment

Even though we like toys really a lot, this is post is not about “my lens is longer than your lens” (well … maybe a bit) but something i always wanted to try: A Mini Review about the practicability of a longer Macro like the SIGMA 150mm Macro or the Canon 180 Macro on APS-C for diving in…

Muck Dives: Hot or not

Critters, Diving Stories, LembehBy Serge AbourjeilyNovember 6, 2014Leave a comment

Frogfish, Frogfish, Frogfish, Octopus and then two Frogfishes next to each other: These are moments that turn a muck dive into real Lembeh Muck Dives. The famous beautiful black sand slopes here in Lembeh usually show cycles of extreme critter density which follow after slower periods. This applies to all Muck Dives here: They might…

Creature Feature: Randall’s Frogfish

Creature Feature, Lembeh, PhotographyBy Serge AbourjeilyNovember 3, 2014Leave a comment

Among the various Frogfish to be seen in Lembeh Strait Randall’s Frogfish (Antennarius randalli) is without question one of the rarer seen species. Which does not suprise as it is a rather small species that stays well hidden and camouflaged: Randall’s Frogfish grows to about 5 cm in size and matches the colour of its…

Favorinus Nudibranchs Feeding together

Biology, Critters, Diving Stories, LembehBy Serge AbourjeilyNovember 1, 2014Leave a comment

Even though these weeks are all about the Hairy Octopus (we are seeing them on a daily basis – even several per day – since almost two weeks), there are also many other cool critters found right now. We still go for Hairy Frogfish, all other types of Frogfishes, Blue Ringed Octopus, Wonderpus, Mimic octopus,…
