EDITORS COMMENTS
In this underwater photograph by David Fleetham, we find a NA, or Tiger Goby (Bryaninops tigris), skillfully camouflaged among the intricate branches of a black coral (Antipathes spp.) formation. The goby's vibrant orange and black stripes blend seamlessly with the coral's dark, textured surface, creating an almost abstract image that showcases the remarkable symbiosis between these two diverse marine organisms. The photograph was likely taken in the crystal-clear waters surrounding the Hawaiian Islands, where both the goby and black coral thrive in the rich and fragile ecosystems of the Pacific Ocean. The close-up perspective allows us to appreciate the intricate details of both the goby's body and the coral's branching structure. The Tiger Goby is a small, miniature fish belonging to the Gobiidae family, while the black coral is an anthozoan, a type of invertebrate that forms the foundation of many coral reefs. The goby's presence among the coral is an example of commensalism, a symbiotic relationship where one organism benefits while the other is neither harmed nor helped. In this case, the goby gains protection from the coral's structure and the camouflage it provides, while the coral does not appear to be affected. This photograph is a testament to the beauty and complexity of the marine fauna that inhabit the world's oceans. The intricate details, rich colors, and dynamic interplay of light and shadow make it a stunning addition to any collection of underwater imagery. Whether used as wall art, a desktop background, or a screensaver, this photograph is sure to transport viewers to the vibrant and fascinating world beneath the waves.
