Camouflage in reefs
The creatures in the reefs indeed seem to be masters of camouflage.
The creatures in the reefs indeed seem to be masters of camouflage.
The sea horse which hides among 'coral pens' and the innumerable types of crustaceans which get 'lost' among the bright colourful reefs. When the tiny fish and creatures hide beneath the reefs on seeing a small school of 'thugs', one of the thugs goes beneath which scares the hiding little ones into swimming above, where they are promptly made 'biriyani' by the waiting thugs!
One type of fish (unfortunately I do not remember its name) swims vertically(!) among the reef. In that vertical form they look like a stagnant reef, they swim horizantally only when they have to move from one part of the reef to another.
Spectacular!
