    Not a bad size but not unusual I have seen a few this size while diving they are really cute and very intelligent . I even had one follow me to steal fish I had speared.

    They are an incredible creature, we caught one at wide caloundra that was probably a bit bigger than that one looks. We pulled it up on the deck and watched as it changed colours in an instant ... awsome!

    Saw one at a seahorse farm in tassie. Watched it eat a crab then spit out the nippers and legs. Changed colours about 3 times.
