Unterwasser Pharoah Tintenfisch (Sepia Officinalis) Kopffüßer Eiablage - Stock-Video

Coral reefs are the one of earths most complex ecosystems, containing over 800 species of corals and one million animal and plant species. Here we see a shallow coral reef consisting mainly of hard corals, with two Pharoah Cuttlefish (Sepiida). They have camouflaged themselves perfectly to blend in with the reef. The female is the smaller of the two. She takes her eggs from within her body and lays them under rocks using her tentacles. All the while the male is by her side protecting her. This rare footage of such animal behaviour was captured whilst scuba diving in the Andaman Sea, Krabi, Thailand.
