Here are two critters I have never seen/noticed. The first was on the kelp at TTN. This nudibranch was tiny, like a grain of rice. This was the best picture I could get with a 100mm lens and +10 diopter.



I think the second is a Pacific Ocean Cod. I had my macro lens, so I could not get a great (full body) shot. It was laying in the sand at about 40' opening and closing it's mouth. I have never seen one of these in the PS.





Thanks in advance for the ID help.

Forgot the add, the "cod" was about 24" in length.

Don't have my id books with me at work but the fish is definitely a Cod. Pacific or Tom. Would need my books to know the difference. They appear from time to time. Have seen them at Redondo and Three Tree several times.

Pacific cod- longer barbel on chin than a tomcod. Plus it's way to big for a tommy.

Thinking maybe Olea hansineensis for the slug. I'm not a slug guy so take it with a grain of salt. (no salt on the slug, please)
