Adjacent to the Paperfish this morning, we found the elusive Ribbon eel. Another bizarre creature that seems to spend its life with its jaws agape!
This animals is about as thick as my smallest finger, although more compressed. The pronounced "flags" on the snout must be hunting related appendages, I'll try and look this up when I get to the computer.
This was a good little dive, Paperfish and Ribbon eels are the signature species on this reef, so we've done well, even though we didn't score a Whale shark.
