The other yacht owners at the marina are always worried about ‘fouling’ — the water here is warm and fertile and thick growths of kelp appear on every submerged surface. A few days ago my next-door neighbor Fred was in flippers and a mask scraping the underside of his boat to reduce drag.
Since the Clamn has neither ability nor inclination for travel, I’m exempt from worrying about such things; the underside of my bedroom is very green. And, there’s a lot of activity down there!

Annelid of some sort — very wiggle and creepy!
Two views of the same 1/2″ crustacean — probably a ‘slipper lobster’.

Wha? It’s not self-evident how you got these shots.
