The behavior is so dynamic things!!
We want everyone to see this.

In this term, many kinds of underwater creatures lay an eggs.
For example , Anemone fish have a eggs recently.

Father Anemone fish protect his eggs until hatch out.
If you are lucky, you may be able to see the situation of hatch out in night diving.

The water temperature is getting warmer.
It was 20~21 degree. I hope water temperature  will be more higher soon.

At last, I show you this pic.

A dolphins come near our port.
When we go to the dive point, we can see the dolphin every time.

Dolphin  sometimes came to Kushimoto , But it is rare to stay at the same place for two days.

I wish this dolphin stay at Kushimoto for a long time.

They live in a hole where is coral.

There are also beautiful shell behind hermit crab.
I think it is so beautiful, so I took a pic of it.

Others, the seaweed was spawning.

Can you see the tiny eggs??Eggs is red one.
It is so difficult to observe with your eyes, so you need to use digital camera.

Last, I wanna show you this seaslug.
