Dear Dr. Rudman,
Thanks for your help in identifying my scyllaeids...

It will be interesting to keep on looking for these animals and try to figure out how the coloring works. I would say we have as many red alga as we do green, perhaps it is a question of chance: the larvae of the red ones that establish themselves in green alga do not make it to visible size, the same could be said about the green ones. I will continue to record them and in time bigger numbers will give us better grounds for knowing. They are not very abundant and they are pretty difficult to see, so I would not wait standing up.
