Oh, that was really cool.

These guys are hard to come by, but you captured awesome footage.

Wow, that was cool. Watching it change color so much was amazing.

How big was it anyway?

Are they good eating?

That was the first mimcs, I've ever seen in the Philippines. The spot was only 7m deep located infront a small village. They were around 30 cm in length. The divemaster told us that the place is still unknown to the other dive shops, therefore we found ONLY 7 mimics, so each potographers actually had his private mimic.While I was filming them others swam around me as I saw on pictures after the dive. Awsome experience.

Only 7 mimic octopus in one dive site?! Forget it then! lol.

That's awesome....sort of like a mimic assembly line for underwater photogs/videographers...
