​Diving around Mergui Archipelago
For the night dive, we had an awesome time... Shrimps was everywhere you look and we often spot Spanish Dancers and other big Nudibranch too...
There are about 40 known species of seahorse.
Seahorses prefer to swim in pairs with their tails linked together.
Seahorse couples are essentially monogamists, in love with one partner for long periods of time.
Every morning, seahorse couples engage in ritualistic dances to greet each other... What a nice attention to beginning the day!
Frog fish...
Due to its amazing camouflage and remarkable luring behaviors, the frog fish is considered one of the most efficient examples of aggressive mimicry.
Unlike the chameleon, the frog fish can't change its color quickly, it need several weeks...
Spanish dancer...
The Spanish dancer, scientific name Hexabranchus sanguineus, is a dorid nudibranch.
Spanish Dancers swim by undulating their bodies like a Spanish dancer’s in red skirt during a flamenco dance...
Spanish Dancers are able to store the toxins from the sponges they eat inside their own bodies and it become a formidable weapon of self defense against it's predators...
