very cool

i do have some questions though...

here's another vid of the same story

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZQMm5HN1Ums

they report that this specimen was filmed using an rov off the coast of indonesia

the problem?

only the latimeria chalumnae have this blue coloration, and this species is only found near south africa, tanzania, and comoros

the indonesian coelacanth, latimeria menadoensis, has a greyish-brown coloration

so there's either some funny business going on, or this is a *major* scientific find
