This fish lives in open water, on the surface or often in deep lagoons or near steep slopes.
He lives on a shoal and has diurnal activity. We can see in these shoals its close parent (Caesio teres), to distinguish them we must look at the yellow part which is different in the Teres according to the age and which starts from the caudal diagonally.
Some sharks can stay motionless on the sand (white tips reef sharks, nurse sharks, etc.).
These sharks don't have to swim to bring oxygen to their gills like other sharks (grey, hammerheads tc.)
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!
