Baby eel I think. I tried to save it. But I think it had been put of the water too long unfortunately
Buscando un nuevo anfitrión, nos acompaño casi toda la inmersión
Very lucky to see a pair of cute juveniles just on a floating leaf moving towards shore. Sadly it was choppy so quite disappointed I didn't get any extraordinary shots but oh well.
Not sure if these are pipefish or seahorse?
I also saw a creseidae pteropod but couldn't get a shot.
~1.5cm long
Looks like the same as a previous observation of these cool looking larval fish just a younger one: https://inaturalist.nz/observations/135866086
~1cm long

Reported by Meg Fulford, Greymouth Star journalist. Shoals reported to be under the Greymouth wharf. Photo supplied.
Large, ~1.2m. Wasn't next to the boat ramp the day before. Only visible damage was to the lower jaw and the kink/twist where it was folded over. Trawlers and a longliner(?) operate from the wharf, locals report catching large pale or grey eels in the harbour.
