Comments : This little fish is a find. This is the first of this species I
have noted on over 200 cold water dives. They are usually found much deeper
(well beyond the limits of divers), but I was lucky enough to find this
critter at 80 feet. When lying on the bottom, it "curls up" and wraps its
tail around its head.
