Night Creatures Bonaire ep. 47

Come with us to visit night creatures in Bonaire's underwater world. In this episode we discover a myriad of creatures. Some, like an enormous arrow crab and a box crab are comical to watch in action. To see some we must go up in the water column in deeper black water at night. Some of these include a larval mantis shrimp, a baby octopus no larger than a thumbnail, while some are much larger like the Red-spotted siphophore. We also encounter a very curious male frogfish, spectacularly colored male and female razorfish, and much more. You will also discover that despite the bleaching and SCTLD there are still beautiful coral on Bonaire. Expect a spectacular experience and to see creatures in forms you probably never saw before. To see these creatures we go to some places that most divers never go - like the Water Energy Bonaire's (WEB) pier hanging out in dark, mid column, and over the wall at Oil Slick Leap. It is an episode you won't want to miss.
