Mystery sculpin

Post by StellarChum »

Hi there!

I'm having trouble identifying a couple of sculpin, can anyone please help me? The first sculpin was found during a night dive on Lopez, the second during the day at Three Tree. :fish:

Thanks!

Looks like a buffalo sculpin and a Red Irish Lord to me.
