Muck diving in the Lembeh Strait. Weird and wonderful critters from north Sulawesi. This is the best footage from my 2006 trip with Two Fish Divers, featuring video from classic Lembeh Strait sites including Hairball, Aer Perang, TK (Teluk Kembahu), Aw Shucks, Police Pier, Angels’ Window, Nudi Falls, Nudi Retreat and Jahid.
Editor: Divers are drawn to Lembeh Strait by the mind-boggling diversity of fishes and invertebrates that live on and in the dark, lava sand bottom. This is a great look at the area covered by dive writer Werner Fiedler in the September/October 2013 Issue of CORAL.
There are so many familiar marine fish and invertebrates in this 20 minute video that we’ve seen in the aquarium trade over the years, but here for the first time moving in their natural environment. The big bonus is they are all ID’ed in the upper left corner of the screen by both a common and their taxonomic names.
Just an absolutely beautiful video. Thanks so much for sharing it!
