Very nice nudibranch of the aeolis family.
This nudibranch is carnivorous and keeps intact the stinging cells of living beings that it consumes, it then ejects them in case of danger. We do not know any real predator at the red-finger aeolis.
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!
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!
