Most of the photos posted to this page were taken with a Canon 20D in an Ikelike housing with TTL connection to an Ikelite DS-125 and an Inon 2000 substrobe. I also use a Sony Cybershot P150 in a Sony housing attached to a Sea & Sea YS-25 via fiberoptic cable.

Slug and Isopod
This tiny sea slug (right, 6mm) is not much bigger than the sphaeromatid isopod (left). According to our friend Leslie Harris, these isopods are primarily mild-mannered herbivores; the smallest ones are thought to scrape diatoms & detritus off sand grains.
The slug may be a juvenille Pleurobranchus, but this is only a wild guess.
