Mating tench. The nice fish with the orange eye. Normally extremely shy. But when mating you can see them when you are lucky. I used a rebreather to take this picture.

A blind cave fish and 2 cichliden in a cave in Mexico. The blind cavefish is quite rare, and the cichliden follow divers with their lights inside the cave. The blind fish did not survive the attack. Maybe not the best picture, but it tells a story

A very special picture of red-eyed damselflies under water. This couple is putting their eggs underwater. The silver color is due to small air bubbles to 'breathe' under water.

Only in cenote Zapote in Mexico these kind of speleothems can be found. These bells are really strange and still grow under water where normal stalactites only can grow in dry areas.

Hells Bells, the only place in the world where these bells can be found. A unique cenote. These formations grow under water, so are not formed in a dry period. They still grow. The complete mechanism is not understood, but anaeroob bacteria help.

Larvae of a dragonfly. Almost nobody knows that dragonflies live most of their lives under water. People only know them as the animals with wings. But they live a few years under water before their last stadium in their lives.

In 1 lake I dive quite a lot in winter, there are frogs found under water. I really like that. The frogs are found at 16-20m depth. And the special thing is that you can see that the waterpressure makes the frogs flat. But they are still alive.
