It appears to be the elusive whitenus gelatinous massicus. Rarely seen around here and hardly ever at Mukilteo! But I have not been to a Critter ID couse Jeff so it could just be a Jelly of some sort.

How big was it?

Was it free floating or firmly attached to the pipeline?

Did it move or stay stationary?

Enquiring minds want to know...

looked like it attatched itself to the pipe. about 3 inches wide an inch or inch and a half high. my brother and another diver where on the other side of the pipe, and i did not see there dive lights between the pipe and the little animal.
