Underwater Spa Day - Green Sea Turtle Gets the Royal Treatment from Yellow and Goldring Tangs!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this incredible shot captured by David Fleetham, we witness a truly unique moment in the underwater world. A magnificent endangered green sea turtle, known as Chelonia mydas, stretches its neck out gracefully to be pampered by a team of diligent cleaners - the vibrant yellow tangs (Zebrasoma flavescens) and goldring tangs (Ctenochaetus strigosus). It's like witnessing an exclusive spa session for our aquatic friends! The lemon sailfin and kole yellow eye tangs work their magic on the majestic turtle's shell while the slender toothed surgeonfish delicately remove any unwanted hitchhikers. The scene takes place in the North Pacific waters off Hawaii, USA. These tropical islands are not only blessed with stunning landscapes but also serve as crucial habitats for these beautiful creatures. As we marvel at this enchanting portrait, it serves as a gentle reminder of nature's delicate balance. Through symbiotic relationships like this one between turtles and fish, we can appreciate how different species rely on each other for survival. So next time you need some relaxation or rejuvenation, just imagine yourself being treated like royalty by a team of colorful fish! But until then, let us cherish this image that reminds us of both beauty and harmony found beneath the waves.
