This shrimp is not very easy to spot, being quite small.
These are cleaner shrimps that clean the mouths and fins of larger fish, which spot them with its large antennae.
The whale shark is the largest fish in the world!
Some whales are larger, but they are mammals, not fish!
Mammals have a horizontal tail.
Fishes have a vertical fin.
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.
