Super cool! Thanks for sharing

I should have made it a joke of "swim, don't tumble" related to the hilarious swimming of...also ostracods

Had an amazing dive in Bonaire a couple of years ago where we hung out with the ostracods to see the show. Definitely one of the top few dives I've done.

@ostratodd.bsky.social tried to get me to see it in Curacao but it was aaaages waiting and I got cold 😭😭😭

People mock me for diving with a 5mm suit and hooded vest in Bonaire. And I still complain about being cold :)

jopabinia.bsky.social•77 days ago

We were snorkeling so I had nothing lol

Yeah, that would have been cold. And probably also a bit frustrating... hanging out in the middle of a sea-ful of mating ostracods was fantastic in a way that looking down from the surface probably wouldn't be.

Provided you don't think *too* hard about what you're swimming through...
