Fleshy limpet pics!

[sloshesv]

I've received hundreds, if not thousands, of requests for pics after reporting that I had a fleshy limpet in my tank. Well after a grant from the National Geographic Society and thousands of man hours WE HAVE OUR PICS!
TA-DA!

 

[sloshesv]

I know, I could just cry!

I must have missed something. I had a couple of these in my tank. Is there something I don't know?

Is there something I don't know?

Almost certainly.

I also would like to know what's so special about these things. Please inform the uniformed. Thank you.

During our research we came upon this rare gorgonian and a as of yet undiscovered fish species. We've decided to call it a "leaf" fish because it's appearence is very much like a leaf.

Here's a better picture of the new fish species.

Again thanks to the NGS with out whose financial and personnel help this would not be possible.

W*F?! This is not the response we expected for such ground-breaking, earth-shattering news. I'm couldn't be more disappointed.

I'm glad SOMEBODY appreciates all the hard work.

You caught me off guard. I usually only find that Sarcasm in The Lounge. Nice pics BTW. The limpet looks rather large

 

[sloshesv]

It measured 1.3 meters long by .7 meters wide when fully extend.

That may be a Shield Limpet perhaps. Leslie should chime in soon.

You're obviously mistaken.
