Moofushi Manta cleaning station
Although they have very good vision, they perceive the world more through sound. The sound leaces their melon and returns to a branch of the auditory nerve on the jaw. This is not a sign of aggression. It just heard us.(under permit)

Paramuricea clavata
random passerby (taken under permit)
Adult escorts are usually but not always related to the calf. An Aunt, sister, cousin, grandmother, or even its mother. They all look after the new one. (taken under permit)
Incredibly social, the birth of a new one is a special time to get together and say hi (taken under permit)

Entangled
The Lumpfish or Cyclopterus lumpus. A fish which lack a swimming bubble. Like to sit on rocks, trying mimicing the background. My favourite fish! They are very clumsy colorful and playful.
