The "black" clownfish is hard to recognize because it has many species. For this one, its restricted geographical area in Madagascar facilitates the task.
He is also very present on a type of anemone he loves: the anemone of Mertens (Stichodactyla mertensii).
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.
The tiger shark has slender marks similars to the lines of tigers, hence its name.
When it is juvenile, these marks are round and not vertical. They change when it grows.
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.
