Bignose unicornfish has the ability to remove or appear the blue color of its body.
It is an independent fish, living alone, in pairs or by a few individuals.
It has often been seen eating the bubbles that are made by breathing underwater during dives. It is not uncommon to see 4 or 5 by looking up at the end of the dive :).
The whale shark is the largest fish in the world!
Some whales are larger, but they are mammals, not fish!
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.
The kakihona sushi (sushi wrapped in persimmon leaves) are really the best!
To eat them, you have to go to Nara!
