Just a quick one...

Just a quick entry today.

I am currently sitting in a cabin in South West Rocks with my regular dive buddy Keith. Waiting for tomorrow when we get to dive at Solitary Island in Coffs Harbour. But even keener for Sunday when we get to dive Fish Rock Cave in South West Rocks. Hopefully the Grey Nurses will put on a show for us!
Killing time in the dated cabin - we were just going through some images and I came across a branch that I hadn't posted here.












The image above is of
Ceratosoma amoenum. A relatively common nudibranch on the Central Coast of NSW.

Ceratosoma amoenum can reach a maximum size of 60mm. Colour variations are common between different areas.


The image below shows another Ceratosoma amoenum that I found near the Skillion at Terrigal on the Central Coast of NSW.
You can see the spots are different with red being more dominant.
