Magnus and Rasmus are two friends from the organic chemistry department. Magnus is Swedish and a post-doc. Rasmus is Norwegian (from Narvik) and is working on his doctorate. Magnus invited us over to his place for a fresh fish dinner. Friday afternoon (June 12), he and Rasmus went diving and caught three wolf fish, which they prepared, marinated and grilled. They served the fish with a yogurt/cucumber sauce. It was excellent! Normally they remove the head of the fish while they are still under the water, but they left the head on one so that we could see it. The fish has an inner layer of teeth so it can crush the hardshell marine life they feed on (they don't eat other fish). In the top photo, the tail is actually flapping. Now that's fresh. In the water, they said the steinbit (sp?--name for wolf fish in Norwegian means "stone biter") glows blue.
