I am right in saying the 'beast' is like two shades of blue?

I was going to suggest some sort of Eel? Or perhaps a snakehead type as they are spreading rapidly.

Its pretty big, but not huge. I'd guess at something around 3m long, no bigger than 4m long

what always blows my mind is scale. is it a tiny whale shark in a small ocean or is the whale shark to scale in a big ocean? u dont have any scenery to relate to so you cant judge scale.
