Filming opp.

[casalt]

I have two red scooter blennies, one male and one female. Here's the thing , at night just after lights out the male does a little display for the female. Now the cool part, they actually touch fins together and rise to the surface together without ever seperating. At the surface they snap away from each other and dart to the rocks or sand bed. Minutes later they do it again, she plays hard to get at first , but he just keeps flashing until she gives in to his sexy dance. Heres the offer so to speak , if anyone has the ability to film in very low light , ie.. they do this with the blue led's on, I think this might be a great opportunity to get this behavior on film. Maybe even a college project or something like that. pm if you have ideas and you want to film this.

Amazing what goes on, especially when most of us aren't paying attention...

Do you have a video camera with infra-red ("night mode")?

I don't have anything capable of filming at night, I' m not even sure how rare of an activity this is. Just thought I'd give some photo or film person the chance to catch it on film. Maybe even some marine biologist student. Just throwing it out there. My wife and I watch every night and it still makes me say wow and ooohhh.
