Dive report for 7/4/26
- Visibility
- A clear 10-15 feet
Planned on diving Driftwood tire reef. Suiting up torn the neck seal. So drive home, grabbed old wetsuit. But missed the slack so had to settle for Pond #1. Thousands of mostly small Moon jellies, hundreds of Sticklebacks. Green slime algae covering everything in the shallows.
White Bubble shell slugs and their eggs all over the place, muck still home to the Bat star commensal worms.

Lots of Moon jellies of all sizes, thousands of White Bubble Shell slugs and their eggs, muck covered with brown Bat star Commensal worms. Schools of Sticklebacks, three Slender cockscombs. Highlight - two Tall-top jellies, adding them to my "new critter list". :)
