Robust fusilier fish
Robust fusilier fish. Huge school of robust fusilier fish (Caesio cuning) over a coral reef. These fish congregate around the edges of reefs. Such schooling makes it difficult for a predator to target an individual fish. Fusiliers feed on plankton, and may reach a length of up to 30 centimetres

Blue Bony Fish Coral Reef Multitude Pisces School Shoal
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the mesmerizing sight of a massive school of robust fusilier fish gracefully swimming over a vibrant coral reef. The image captures the essence of nature's beauty, as these stunning blue-hued creatures congregate around the edges of reefs for protection and sustenance. Their synchronized movement creates an awe-inspiring spectacle that not only astounds but also serves as a defense mechanism against potential predators. The robust fusiliers' schooling behavior makes it incredibly challenging for any predator to single out an individual fish from this multitude. This strategic formation ensures their survival in the vast oceanic expanse. These bony fish primarily feed on plankton, sustaining themselves with microscopic organisms found within their aquatic habitat. With lengths reaching up to 30 centimeters, these elegant marine beings possess both grace and resilience. Underwater photographers have managed to capture this remarkable moment in time, showcasing the intricate details of each fusilier fish while highlighting their collective strength. As we gaze upon this breathtaking photograph, we are reminded of the wonders that lie beneath the surface of our oceans. It serves as a testament to the diversity and interconnectedness present in marine ecosystems—a reminder that every creature plays its part in maintaining balance and harmony within our delicate underwater world.
