One of my creepiest dives.
The “boneyard“ is what is left after spider crab aggregation. The crabs shed their skeletons in order to grow a bigger one and then head back into deeper waters. They are normally loners.
The stingrays gather here also in hopes of catching vulnerable soft-boned spider crabs.
I rushed to Melbourne when I heard it was happening... I arrived about 1 day late.
The starfish that tried to trap the octopus inside the pipe.. I don’t even know what to say.
