Specifically, we&#8217;re talking about how they mate. This article originally appeared over at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.diveplanit.com\/category\/marine-environment\/\">Diveplanit<\/a> and although it mentions the Great Barrier Reef, half of the animals listed there can be found in our area as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So that&#8217;s why we will focus on the following four:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><thead><tr><th>Animal<\/th><th>Where to find them<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>Giant clam<\/td><td>Fukui Point<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Clownfish<\/td><td>Almost anywhere<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Green turtles<\/td><td>Lekuan, Timur, Celah-Celah, Siladen, etc<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Napoleon fish<\/td><td>Bunaken, Manado Tua<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The giant clam<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thalassamanado.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/feature-four-creatures.jpg\" alt=\"Giant clam at Fukui Point\" class=\"wp-image-38534 lazyload\" width=\"860\" height=\"430\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thalassamanado.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/feature-four-creatures.jpg\" alt=\"Giant clam at Fukui Point\" class=\"wp-image-38534\" width=\"860\" height=\"430\" \/><\/noscript><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Wahrmut Sobainsky<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The giant clam is the world\u2019s largest species of mollusc. This animal \u2013 for yes it is an animal \u2013 comprises two hard shells which protect soft tissue inside which simply filters nutrients from seawater. It also gets some further nutrients from the bacteria living inside its tissue. Living to more than 100 years old, an adult giant clam can weigh around 200kg and stand almost a metre high.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So apart from the fact it looks like some kind of over-sized sexual organ, first question \u2013 are there boy clams and girl clams?&nbsp;Well, yes there are \u2013 but all clams start out as males. Like just about every living thing, the secret to survival is to grow quickly. Small clams, like small fish, put all their energy into growing. Only when they get to a certain size do they start to think (btw \u2013 a mollusc does not have a brain), about reproduction. But sperm requires much less effort to create than eggs. So small clams contribute the sperm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Only when they grow past a certain size, and therefore age, do they \u2018mature\u2019 into females capable of producing eggs. In terms of the actual reproduction, with giant clams there\u2019s definitely no argy-bargy, but something in the water that triggers \u2018group sex\u2019. On some kind of signal, all the clams in the area release their eggs or sperm \u2013 or whatever they\u2019ve got handy \u2013 into the water to maximise the chances of fertilisation. The largest giant clams, Tridacna gigas, can release more than 500 million eggs in one go.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After fertilisation, the cells rapidly divide and grow to a small ball of cells the size of a mulberry, then to free swimming larvae that feed on plankton. After a few weeks they settle in one place and start the serious business of growing up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Just a word of warning<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The algae that provides extra nutrition to the clams requires sunlight, so most can be seen on shallow reefs (such as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thalassamanado.com\/diving-north-sulawesi-bunaken\/\">Fukui Point<\/a>). Keep a look out for their bright blue-brown mantle when snorkeling. But beware, they close their shells very quickly if they feel something nearby. Approach carefully if you want to see them in their full glory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The anemone fish<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thalassamanado.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/clownfish.jpg\" alt=\"Clownfish peeking out from anemone\" class=\"wp-image-38540 lazyload\" width=\"720\" height=\"480\" \/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thalassamanado.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/clownfish.jpg\" alt=\"Clownfish peeking out from anemone\" class=\"wp-image-38540\" width=\"720\" height=\"480\" \/><\/noscript><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Graham Willis<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Clownfish \u2013 or more correctly&nbsp;anemonefish&nbsp;\u2013 share a unique symbiotic relationship with sea anemones. They are immune to the sting in the anemone\u2019s tentacles, which provides them with a safe haven from predators. In return for this safe haven, the clownfish help the anemone by attracting other fish and shrimp, which get stung and eaten by the anemone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So how would you describe the sex life of a clownfish? &nbsp;Let\u2019s just say it\u2019s complicated\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The female clownfish is always at the top of a clownfish colony hierarchy. When she dies, the most dominant male changes sex to replace her. This means of course, that Nemo\u2019s dad, Marlin, should really have been his mum. Once the eggs, which are laid very close to, or even under the sea anemone, have been fertilised by the male, it is the male that is responsible for looking after them. Indeed, he spends up to 2 weeks fanning the eggs to help they develop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The sea turtles<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thalassamanado.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/hawksbill-turtle.jpg\" alt=\"Curious turtle\" class=\"wp-image-38545 lazyload\" width=\"720\" height=\"480\" \/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thalassamanado.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/hawksbill-turtle.jpg\" alt=\"Curious turtle\" class=\"wp-image-38545\" width=\"720\" height=\"480\" \/><\/noscript><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Wahrmut Sobainsky<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Six of the world\u2019s seven species of sea turtles are found in the waters around our Great Barrier Reef with the green turtle being the most common. It\u2019s really quite strange that we find turtles so endearing, as they are actually just cold blooded reptiles: they breathe air, but live in water, and so have to come onto dry land to lay their eggs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So when, where and mainly how do these armour plated reptiles get it on? Hands up anyone who has any idea? By some still little understood method, pregnant female turtles return to the beach where they first hatched to lay their own eggs. Obviously, male turtles have worked this out, and hang out around the beaches regularly use around mating season. But how do they all know when it\u2019s mating season? Temperature!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Napoleon fish<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thalassamanado.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/wrasse.jpg\" alt=\"Maori Wrasse or Napoleon Fish\" class=\"wp-image-38550 lazyload\" width=\"720\" height=\"480\" \/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thalassamanado.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/wrasse.jpg\" alt=\"Maori Wrasse or Napoleon Fish\" class=\"wp-image-38550\" width=\"720\" height=\"480\" \/><\/noscript><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Diveplanit<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Maori Wrasse \u2013 also known as the Humphead Wrasse or even the Napoleon is the largest living member of the wrasse family. Easily identified by its large size, thick lips, and the hump that appears on the forehead of larger adults.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you were hoping we\u2019d left the juiciest fish-sex until last, I\u2019m afraid you\u2019ll be disappointed. Does this friendly guy look like he has a kinky sex life \u2013 I think not! The Humphead wrasses, like the Groupers, are protogynous hermaphrodites, (which means they have both sets of \u2018tackle\u2019 \u2013 though usually one set is predominant at any particular time), with some female members of a population becoming male at about 9 years old.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">They&#8217;re &#8220;social&#8221; fish<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With Maori Wrasse preferring to live singly, and aggregations events being infrequent, often large males will approach and hang out with divers and snorkelers simply because they\u2019ve become a bit bored of their own company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When they do aggregate for the purposes of procreation, it\u2019s the usual \u2018spray and pray\u2019 method employed by most fish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If there\u2019s one thing I hope you\u2019ve learned from this blog \u2013 it is that small marine creatures expend most of their energy becoming big marine creatures. Big marine creatures can then put all their energy into reproduction \u2013 in an exponential way. Little fish can lay 100s of eggs, but big fish can lay 100,000s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Once we\u2019ve consumed all the big fish, it will take a very long time for fish stocks to recover, and if we continue to catch smaller and small fish of the one species \u2013 they may never recover. Treat eating fish like a luxury, and eat&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.seafoodwatch.org\/\">sustainably caught and certified<\/a>&nbsp;wherever you can.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Thank you <a href=\"https:\/\/www.diveplanit.com\/category\/marine-environment\/\">Diveplanit<\/a>!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today we&#8217;re highlighting four animals you can find in the waters around North Sulawesi.
