This fish swims slowly, especially because propulsion is provided by the dorsal and anal fins. The caudal is used as a rudder.
On the other hand, it is very mobile and can easily sneak into different corals or rocks.
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!
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 kakihona sushi (sushi wrapped in persimmon leaves) are really the best!
To eat them, you have to go to Nara!
