During the dive yesterday at Casuarina Point Reef ( www.donfosters.com ), a Tiger Grouper came straight to us, landed on my right arm and started to spin on her sides. My interpretation of this behavior was that she wanted to get rid of the sucker fish attached to her. However the remora did not seem to like my wet suit and stayed on the grouper. This behavior went on for several minutes. Thankfully my dive buddy (my wife!) managed to get some videos and photos.

Close interaction with the creatures of the sea in their natural environment allows us to appreciate their behavior.
