<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\nAlso known as \u201cshrimps\u201d, they live symbiotically on a sea slug, surrounded by its lungs. Despite their name, which is reminiscent of king crabs, these shrimp are very small \u2013 less than 2.5 cm long.<\/p>\n\n\n\nPhoto taken at night at Hon Ong, Dam Mon Village, Van Thanh, Van Ninh, Khanh Hoa, depth 20 m, water temperature 28\u00b0C. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
These shrimps usually live in pairs and are at peace with symbiotic hosts such as sea slugs or sea cucumbers. These creatures provide food and protection for the shrimp, and in return help the host clean up algae and parasites.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/span>Leaf Scorpionfish (Taenianotus triacanthus)<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\nLives in sand or near rocky areas near coral reefs, up to 10 cm long. I took this photo during a dive at 25 m depth, water temperature 24\u00b0C.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/span>Painted Frogfish (Antennarius pictus)<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\nThis species can reach a length of 30 cm when fully grown. The toadfish swims using its legs. The color of this species is varied because it always tends to change to suit its habitat. The skin is soft with small spines, has colored spots. This species lives alone near coral reefs, rocks at depths of up to 75 m.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/span>Porcelain Anemone Crab (Neopetrolisthes ohshimai)<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\nAt a depth of 15m, the water temperature is 28 degrees Celsius. This crab lives in symbiosis with sea anemones on the sand. Due to their slow movement, they can hardly survive in the ocean without the protection of sea anemones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/span>Wire Coral Goby (Bryaninops yongei)<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\nLiving and camouflaged on coral reefs at a depth of 25 m, under the sea of Hon Mun. This is the most elaborate and time-consuming photo, because I spent more than 60 minutes hovering and motionless, avoiding scaring the fish away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/span>Feather duster worms (Sabellidae)<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\nAre a family of marine polychaete tubeworms characterized by their ciliated protrusions. They live in tubes built from a self-secreted mucus, reinforced with sand and shell fragments.<\/p>\n\n\n\nIt took me over 90 minutes to take this photo at 10 m depth, because just by seeing movement the feathers will retract. You have to wait for them to spread out naturally and sway with the water current.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/span>Ornate ghost pipefish \u2013 (Solenostomus paradoxus)<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\nHermaphrodites, can become either female or male depending on the habitat. Scuba divers can find them at depths of 3 to 25 m, especially near rocky outcrops and coral.<\/p>\n\n\n\nSource: Vnexpress<\/strong><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Th\u1ebf gi\u1edbi d\u01b0\u1edbi \u0111\u00e1y v\u1ecbnh Nha Trang c\u00f3 nh\u1eefng gi\u1ed1ng lo\u00e0i \u0111a d\u1ea1ng v\u1edbi \u0111\u1eb7c t\u00ednh ri\u00eang c\u00f3 th\u1ec3 khi\u1ebfn ch\u00fang ta ng\u1ee1 ng\u00e0ng v\u1ec1 n\u00f3. \u0110\u1ed9c gi\u1ea3 Tr\u00ed Nguy\u1ec5n c\u00f3 ch\u1ee9ng ch\u1ec9 l\u1eb7n qu\u1ed1c t\u1ebf PADI Divemaster h\u01a1n 10 n\u0103m kinh nghi\u1ec7m, ki\u00eam nhi\u1ebfp \u1ea3nh gia d\u01b0\u1edbi n\u01b0\u1edbc chuy\u00ean nghi\u1ec7p (Underwater Photographer).
