All ...Andrew, you have to watch more Attenborough. All the big fish go in for a parasite polish, some even stay attached to their favourites and keep swimming. Haven't you seen those ads for health spas where you put your feet in a warm bath for the fish to nibble the old skin off?<br /><br />Jayne, you didn't mention the hat, surely you didn't miss the hat? I'll have to find a photo, it's too good to miss.<br /><br />Plasman, Your ranting posts are natural treasures. You're quite welcome to come to Oz and joint the rant about changing Invasion day from the 26th of January to some other time. Nobody cares about the date but take the holiday away and there would be a revolution.<br /><br />Beth, it wasn't a big yacht as far as the race goes but it was a big fish, the sea was pretty rough so it was lucky they were all rescued. It's a rough race from Sydney to Hobart but usually calm homeward bound but not always. <br /><br />River, you've been doing far too much work lately and in so much heat. Am I crazy or has Adelaide's weather gone to far into climate change?<br /><br />El Chi, it seems to have gone very quiet on the "Who's your father" front. I'm afraid that the news sometimes takes a back seat to the talking head, so I'm with Andrew, we need a Justin Trudeau in triplicate.

The logistics of capturing and caring for this creature are beyond the ability (and budget) of individuals, and even a professional operation had to release one that outgrew its tank.Beth Waltzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02720634636307254576noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17391176.post-83594359173773307882018-01-15T20:22:19.710+11:002018-01-15T20:22:19.710+11:00That is a weird looking fish.
