Deep sea creatures
Have any of you seen the pics of the deep sea creatures that were washed to shore from the tsunami, I have about 20 on email but don't want to repost something already here, couldn't find it though. Some very freaky and cool stuff.

Yeah i seen them. Some of them are pretty freaky hey. Makes you wonder what else is lurking down at those depths. I think i will just stick to clownfish and tangs, much easier on the eye.

Those aren't deep sea creatures!
They're aliens!

I heard after i posted the first time that these things were not washed uo in the tsunami at all, a claim that it is supported if you read the text in the link above!!
They are all fakes but still cool cretures.

Hrrm..wonder if that viperfish is "reefsafe" though.
As an addicted deep sea fisherman though I am wondering why they do not all have stuck out eyeballs and bladders. They must not be like your typical rockfish type species.
