I say the purple dinosaur's got it ... he even provided supporting data. Richie, give him his prize before he starts singing that damn song of his. Actually Barney, you may not want to sing that around Richie anyway - you may get a lot more love than you bargained for! Have you seen any of the Keys pictures??

Trust you to come along and spoil it Mike. There I was expecting a new species of killer sea snake to be identified and now this!!!

Hope you got back from OZ ok.

Well I tried to get an answer from people who supposed to know more and hopefully to confirm our theories about supernatural sea creatures.

Alas, they believe that it is a part of the spiny dorsal fin of a fish. This information ruined my life. I have seen all my dreams for u/w search and capturing of a live u/w batman, collapsing.

Ah, and possibly the type of fish is a sniper! No more details.

I told you no. It can't be identified unless one can smell it.

Is that not the dart from the infamous sniper fish, living in wrecks primarily
found in florida waters? hunting unsuspecting Optima divers with a vengance.
I've heard tail that once it sets its sights on you there is no way to hide from it.

all the best.
