We rushed home from the SDUFEX film festival in La Jolla so that we could check up on the red octopus eggs at the Landing Craft. About half of them have hatched. While photographing two trilineatas I was sudddenly attacked by a red menace. It turned out to be Commodore Andy who had arrived to join us. I showed him the eggs and the juvenile giant sea bass, but I missed the three large GSBs that Merry spotted again.
