Cousin of Doriprismatica atromarginata, it has a much livelier yellow color and is slender.
It feeds on sponges, its gills (which wiggle constantly) can be of different colors: cream, yellow, dark chestnuts.
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.
Turtles are in economy mode when they are sleeping. If they are woken during night, they may not have enough air to return to surface.
So, please be careful during night dives!
The kakihona sushi (sushi wrapped in persimmon leaves) are really the best!
To eat them, you have to go to Nara!
