COVER STORY
Blackwater diving is like exploring an unknown universe. This is because you can meet some very weirdest aliens that are completely different from the sea creatures we have been encountering always. This juvenile ribbonfish popped out when my tank was almost empty during safety stop. Among the dust that shined like a lot of stars on a dark night, the encounter with this dazzlingly beautiful fish will be one of the most amazing moments of my dive life.
