  1. Went out yesterday on the Peace to Santa Cruz Island. Here are some pictures from that trip:

    Some nice shots, what is the clear creature with either a snail in it's belly or underneath it? Some type of nudibranch?

    To be honest I have no idea. I will have to post here to see if anyone can tell me. I saw it and was like wow that looks interesting. It was moving through the water at one point and floated down on to a rock where I could photo it.

  3. The tunicate is called Salp. They bond into chains that can get quite long. Last week they were so plentiful at the intake to Diablo Canyon Nuclear Reactor the plant had to shut down. I was on the Peace 4/22 and photoed many myself on backside of Santa Cruz.
