0 harold Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 Thanks for the ID. And thanks to Donna for helping me post it. It is the first time I have ever seen one of them, it really was very cute and happy to be returned to the deep blue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 NaClH2OK9 Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 It's the small ones you have to watch! I remember pulling in my anchor and looking to clean down the mud from it only to realise a small blue ring octopus on it. I've no idea how poisonous the squid is but it's an attractive species.
