At a guess - something along the lines of number identified species - which depending on definition is between 2 and a 100 million (wikipedia).

We really enjoyed your blog.
You are an excellent underwater photographer. Not easy. We used to do underwater video a lot but this is much harder. Excellent!

Octopus
When Ali was a very small boy, aged about 4, we lived in the middle of England, about 100 miles from the sea.

Fantastic photos as always, we're so glad you see more than just octopus (octopii?)

''...you should spot this response ;) ''
I never payed much attention to my news feed until very recently. It was actully this new feature(which I accidentally noticed) that made me interested in it. Now, I look at the news feed everyday, to see who responded to my comments. I hope, I haven't missed too many from before I started checking them. :)
