Our guest Frans didn’t get a plastic bag, but a Pyrosome in front of his lens. A colony of millimeter-sized animals belonging to the genus Thaliacea and the class Tunicata.

Every morning and every evening, the two partners of the Pygmy Pontohi Seahorses (hippocampus pontohi) meet to serenade together. They dance around each other for just a few minutes before returning to their proper places. Less than 10 mm in size but love seems to be infinite.
