Snorkeling Trip

[ronj]

well, i am living back in Destin as of yesterday!! hopefully i will never be in, or anywhere around Louisiana again!!! i got my gear unpacked today and went out for the first time this year.. the water was crystal clear...i could see perfectly to the bottom at about 25-30ft..... i saw all kinds of stuff... i found several schools of tangs again.. they are of the Acanthurus family.( still not sure of the name)...i saw Coral Beautys, blue/yellow damsels, tangs, some sort of groupers(i think)...there were baby damsels everywhere..i have never seen any that small before. they were literally everywhere.... i also saw what i think were two batfish.... they were about 6"X6"... i also found some sort of anemone's connected to a few rocks..i believe they might have been condalactus'.. it was a very fun trip.. we stayed out for about 3hrs and then called it a day... i will be back tomorrow!!!!!!

Destin is in the panhandle on the Gulf....we drive to a kind of hidden entrance to the beach...if you don't live here , it can be hard to find. (although it was packed with tourists today!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) Krish, i am down to only a 20g.....all of my acro's died on the move..my tank is so cloudy, i can't even see through the water...i am going to do a huge water change tomorrow!!! i have a few monti caps that have made it so far..i also have a figi leather frag...that is about all that survived!!!! Gaby,i bet you would look pretty funny snorkeling in your tub...i guess i'll ask Krish how that looks

 

[Krish]

LOL!! I'll give you a call sometime this week man.
