This is going to be such a tough one to judge. Some of these pics are awesome.....and the creatures quite incredible.

What an excellent theme choice. Have some green.

Think they come from a family of carnivorous tun shells - Tonnidae. I dont think this actually shoots out a dart as such but rather a squirt of water which has hydrochloric and sulfuric acid in it.......lovely eh

Reply about Tazzie creature. It looks like it is what the earlier poster said Tun Shell (tonnidea) If you have Debelius its on page 234 (in my copy)
