Hard to take pictures because very shy, the juvenile emperor angelfish is different from the adult who doesn't have the same shapes or the same colors.
Each diver is happy to meet it, we don't say it's very rare but enough to notify it, this one being very shy, it hides it very quickly!
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.
The whale shark is the largest fish in the world!
Some whales are larger, but they are mammals, not fish!
The kakihona sushi (sushi wrapped in persimmon leaves) are really the best!
To eat them, you have to go to Nara!
