The amazing “piglet squid” (Helicocranchia sp.) gets its nickname for its small round body, wiggling tail, and siphon that looks like the nose of a pig. This one was spotted by MBARI researchers 900 meters (2,950 feet) underwater off the Monterey Bay. Credit: @MBARI_News

A giant among larvaceans. ⁠ Bathochordeaus is considered a giant among larvaceans, but it's about the size of a breakfast muffin. Look closely, and you'll see this giant larvacean towering beside the tiny, regular variety larvacean to its right.⁠

What beautiful, complex structures!
Had a really shocking convo earlier today when someone asked me why I was focused on the #deep #ocean since it wasn't visually engaging. 😲🤯 OMG, HAVE YOU SEEN A GIANT LARVACEAN #SNOTPALACE??? @MBARI_News

Under the sea in #Fiji we took ~1000 photos 📸 across 29 #coralreef sites. These were stitched together creating a beautiful #3D reef reconstruction. We use this to measure aspects of the #habitat, which is critical when exploring reef #fish 🐠 health. #conservation
