Hyotan

Also known as: ひょうたん (Japanese) · ひょうたん島 (Japanese)

The site is a sloping coral reef without current. Batfish school in the shallows and fire gobies are very common. Helfrich's firefish live deeper than 30 m and sometimes come up shallower. In spring nudibranchs increase, including endemic and unnamed species.
