Saltwater Shrimp @ Galveston Beach All over.

[kevin_4u2nv]

Yesterday took my kids to Galveston beach (13th mile road) and when I was building sand castle with my kids found a bunch of yellow shrimp struck in the pit. And then later I found seagull was all over chasing those shrimp. There was lots of seaweed near the shoreline. When the wave comes and all the shrimp struck in the seaweed and stays in the shore. We just run around and remove the Seaweed and collected 50+ shrimp yellow, red and black tiger. most of them are half inch and some one inch. Shrimps are very dense color.

Someone can add to their saltwater collection. Good Luck.

Think these are sargassum shrimp

I saw the sargassum shrimp last time I went along with a sargassum pipefish, angler, a few crabs, a porcilen crab, a blue/red anemone which I can assume is a rock anemone, and ton of fish I wasn't able to catch and identify but I'm sure I saw some small clowns from the looks of it. didn't find any peppermints or anything or black shrimp so I will surely go to this place to check it out.

Where was this exactly?

It's one of the paid parking places forgot te exact name of the beach but the jettie is right next to the entrance practically. I'll try to get a name by this evening.

Clown fish in the Gulf? Hadn't heard of that one.

i found an angler of some sort in that stuff before, and crabs galore. a dolphinologist friend of mine then brought up that those small crabs love to hide anywhere they can. ANYWHERE! i havent experienced anything like that before and i dont intend to so i stay clear of the seaweed lol.

They looked like them. For all I k kw they could have been striped damsels with the lighting hitting them differently distorting their colors

I've been wanting to snag an angler again. Last few times I've went I manage to catch one every time but I never have my collecting gear. I do need a bigger net, new bubbler ect. Any other choice equipment that I can find handy?
