It is first time for me to see in this season.

It is so cute!!!! It looks like dice, doesn’t it??

At last dive, we could see rare shrimp.

The body is clear. So it is hard to see this shrimp with eyes.
But, it is lucky when you can see this.

Also, Now is the best season to observe the clownfish eggs hatching.

Clownfish eggs hatching start at night. So we often go to night dive to see this behavior.
If you want to do night diving, please feel free to let us know!!
