I’ve hit a stumbling block. I have a few bubbles to add and highlights of sunlight on the seabed, but before I do this I need to do something with the central section. This is a painting of the West Pier in the UK. I will add a few fish but certainly no sharks etc. It’s the sea bed I’m concerned about. It doesn’t look right. Any suggestions please?
Star fish, crabs, pink fan corals, sea grass, jellyfish - the world is your oyster so to speak.  There are lots of creatures living in our local waters.  Dogfish (small sharks) are fairly common.  Barnacles and mussels live on any ropes or structures they can find.  I think a little research will go a long way.
Muscles on ropes I had forgotten about these. Thank you. 
Lobsters, crabs, seahorses - and may I put in a word for a small shark?  Just a titchy one?  Even a conger eel.....?
