 23 species sighted at Coles Hole, Nudibranch Day, Gneering Shoals, Mooloolaba, Qld. 09-05-2021.

A double boat entry dive with Gary, David, Tracey, Harvey, Mel and Tom of 40/40 minutes. Maximum depth 19.7 m, 24 C water temperature, over 6 m viz.

Nudibranch Day is here again. The format said not much wind and a 1.4 m swell. On the bottom there was a substantial bit of surge making it challenging. Seeing a 170 mm Miamira moloch was mind blowing! What a critter. Aegires flores nice find Tracey. Favorinus japonicus was also another great find.
