Hi Andrew,
The wierdest, and I'm hoping you can help Dr Ron, was this stuff that looked like "silly snot". We sort long green stretchy "tentacles" protruding out from crevices and up the rocks. They were in pairs, each around 5mm in diamter, up to a few metres longs, bright green with pale green "heads". As soon as the light hit them they would quickly withdraw into the crevice.
I saw a sea spider (pycnogonid) on a piece of coral - will we be covering these?
Yes
We also saw a number of these "sea slugs" that were quite flat and had wide heads shaped like Napolean's hat. I have no idea what they were (I've asked Bill Rudman if he knows).
My guess is that these were flatworms.
