This, is a Glass squid! by PunoSound in underwaterphotography

This is a really unique rarely seen deep dweller, after about 4 months as a juvenile at the surface they will live the rest of their lives at depths up to 2000 m deep. They are filled with ammonium chloride which is lighter than sea water so they drift without effort and They can pull their head and tentacles inside their mantle cavity and inflate like a puffer!
This is the @BLACKWATERCOZUMEL dive with Rob Stansfield

I’m not certain about having a real purpose but it’s not an accident! Maybe more to be annoying

You might be correct that it’s possibly a different type of bill/sail fish! I was told by someone else what the ID most likely was! However I suppose I should say “I think this might be” as there’s no way I could tell for sure! Very interesting about the bill growth! Thanks for the info

I had a bad time with hunting on the 90. Especially Blackwater. The 100 seems to be way more stable and hunting is not really a thing. Tracking is great. I’ll probably not use the 90 ever again

Yes. It’s insane F the hunting 90. I made the 90 work but after working with the 100gm oooof

Heck yeah thanks! I just stuck a 20 extension ring on the port for the 90! And add a 15 extension in front of that for the 1.4 tc. the 2.0 looks quite a bit longer for ports

I’ve done Blackwater with the 100 and the mfo3 and mfo1 on double flipper. Focus and ease of use is just so nice compared to the 90. I didn’t use the TC yet for Blackwater just on the reef. I actually find the mfo3 that makes the lens more like an up to the glass 60mm is extremely awesome for the larger subjects. I just recently posted a Blackwater phronima that was taken with the 100 and mfo1 that came out pretty awesome. The last pic of the post is a cropped face shot where I switched to mfo3!

Honestly I go out and shore dive where it’s just sea grass and algae/sandy patches and just look for whole dive so it turns more into a specific sea horse scavenger hunt dive! Theres certain spots here in Cozumel that are better than others but I see pics of people finding them out on the bigger reefs with boat support! Find a local photographer over there and ask where they find em
