This species of nudibranch can be observed day and night.
It contains a cytotoxic substance: jorumycin, which acts as a repellent and is of interest to researchers for its anti-tumor properties.
Mammals have a horizontal tail.
Fishes have a vertical fin.
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.
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!
