This jackfish feeds on fish at night, we even saw it attack a moray eel with a group of about 3 individuals.
Because of its color, this jackfish is very beautiful and is easily distinguished from other species.
The kakihona sushi (sushi wrapped in persimmon leaves) are really the best!
To eat them, you have to go to Nara!
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.
