HIGHLIGHTS

Moray EelAs the sun starts to set, the denizens of the deep, make ready for the arrival of darkness.

Those animals too timid to exit during the day, now leave their havens in search of food. Moray eels forage the reefs looking for some of their favorite prey; sleeping parrotfish.

 

 ShrimpCrustaceans like shrimps, and lobsters usually just showing their antennae during the day now forage around in the dark of night.

Their eyes reflect like two small points as our underwater lights pass over them. Looks like something out of Scooby Doo!

 

ButterflyfishFish are generally diurnal. At night they hide in the safety of the reef.

Parrotfish cover themselves in a mucus so that they are less detectable. Baracudas hunt at night and squid are attracted to our lights.

Even the coral looks different as it extends it's polyps to feed on the zooplankton.
