You beat me to posting the pic Chris.... it was here within 5 minutes of it being sent!!

For those of you wondering, this female was collected at 257ft.

That's over 80 ft deeper than I've ever been.

LOL...the fish is going to Taiwan. Jerry is going to be a very happy man...

This was the only collected so far along with some bandits.

 

[cwoods8]

They have a day and a half left to go..... who knows what lurks down there? They hit 280 fsw on the first dive.

I'm waiting for a coelacanth.

Going to Taiwan in January will I be able to see this fish in person?

 

[Dejavu]

Sick!!!

 

[skiprr]

Wow!!

 

[tanglovers]

Very nice, hopefully they will get a few more.

Any details on how they are decompressing these fish?

 

[scubarob]

If he is going to 250 feet, I am assuming he is diving a closed circuit rebreather rather than on air. Still, it is not without risk especially if the bailout routine is new to the diver. There is also an issue of decompressing the fish. I have been pretty deep on air and while narcosis is an issue oxygen toxicity is a greater one.

I'm diving an inspirtation classic. And yes, toxictity and bailout are always a major concern.
