EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print by Len Deeley, we are transported to the mesmerizing depths of the Red Sea. As our eyes dive into the image, we find ourselves immersed in a game of hide and seek with nature's masters of disguise. At first glance, all seems calm on the sandy seabed. But upon closer inspection, we discover an enchanting symbiotic relationship unfolding before our very eyes. A pufferfish named Arothron stellatus has found its perfect partner in crime - a cleanerfish known as Labroides dimidiatus. With its speckled markings blending seamlessly into their sandy surroundings, it takes keen observation skills to spot these two remarkable creatures. The pufferfish relies on its incredible camouflage to evade predators while seeking out a thorough cleaning session from its trusty cleanerfish companion. As Labroides dimidiatus diligently inspects every nook and cranny of its friend's body for parasites or dead skin cells, it not only ensures good hygiene but also benefits from a tasty meal. This unique bond between two animals showcases nature's ability to create harmonious relationships that benefit both parties involved. So next time you find yourself exploring the wonders beneath the waves, keep your eyes peeled for hidden treasures like this extraordinary duo in their underwater playground – where spotting them is just as thrilling as winning at hide and seek!
