One of our favourite subjects to see on night dives is the Bobtail Squid! Here in Lembeh we often see Berry’s Bobtail Squid, sometimes known as the Hummingbird Bobtail Squid (Euprymna berryi).

Creature Feature: Lembeh/Ocellated Frogfish

It’s always extremely exciting whenever a new species gets discovered or described. When this particular frogfish was identified, it was a personal highlight of mine and many other critter/frogfish lovers as it had been photographed many times over without anything concrete to say what it was. Then in a scientific Read more…

Creature Feature: Ornate Ghost Pipefish

It’s the season for Ornate Ghost Pipefishes here in Lembeh! This exotic looking fish hovers head down and can usually be found in pairs or smaller groups.
