The only Astropecten I saw.

Olive snail.

No idea if the eggs belong to that drill snail.

Kok Sheng found a Chiton under the rock with the drill snail and eggs. It was quite active, crawling about.


Trust Chay Hoon to find the slugs. On an enormous fan seaweed were enormous (for Costasiella sp.) Costasiella slugs. Some of these slugs were almost 1cm long and have blue tipped rhinophores which was quite unusual.
Many crabs began to appear after dark. They were mostly green colored Thalamita sp. with a few moon crabs and one Sally Lightfoot.

Moon crab.

Up at the base of the rockwall lurked a Grapsus albolineatus.

Periophthalmus chrysospilos.

Kok Sheng spotted this cuttlefish just before we departed.

I haven't been to Tanah Merah,
You all dive there and took all these photos?
I would like to go there maybe this October...
Any advice?
Hi, all this was seen on an intertidal walk during a low tide.
