Defensive Caribbean Octopus
Different octopus, this time, in the daytime. They can not only change their color, but also their transparency in a flash. Here the octopus is trying to appear as large as possible to ward us off. Right after this, he went under a coral head and Dan spent five minutes trying to coax him back out (they like to be petted as long as you are gentle). They change colors as their mood changes..
