Coral exists in many forms, many textures and many colors. Coral is not a plant but an animal, rather a set of animals in fact. Coral is indeed a set of polyps (same family as jellyfish) ;).
The whale shark is the largest fish in the world!
Some whales are larger, but they are mammals, not fish!
Parrotfish create a protective envelope around them when they are sleeping.
So, don't put the light on them during night dive to don't to wake them up and break this envelope.
We can hear the bull shark is very dangerous because of attacks near La Réunion island.
However, tens of them are living at 600 feet from the famous beach of Playa Del Carmen in Mexico. And there are no attacks.
