  • Photo Tour of the Philippines

    de Tim Grollimund ...
    At Atlantis Dumaguete, I saw a whole host of things I'd never had the opportunity to photograph before. The mandarin fish mating dance, a pregnant mantis shrimp, a blue ribbon eel and sea snakes are the most memorable to me. Lots of pipefish, sea horses and nudibranchs live in the seagrass, which made the hang time quite enjoyable. We would spend the last 10 to 15 minutes on the grass beds ... Leer más

  • Yellow Stingray Population Declines in the Keys - What Does it Mean?

    Marine Life, #1

    de Tim Grollimund ...
    Series Libro 1 - Marine Life
    One topic that caught my eye was a study about the changes in the population of yellow stingrays in various parts of the Caribbean. Why should we care about yellow stingrays? In this study, published in the scientific journal Environmental Biology of Fishes, Reef Environmental Education Foundation data on the yellow stingray population were used to study the abundance of the species, as observed ...

  • A Whale of a Good Time (Maybe)

    Marine Life, #15

    de Tim Grollimund ...
    Series Libro 15 - Marine Life
    "As I stood on the boat with my morning coffee and watched the people pile in the boats and head out to the whale sharks, my immediate reaction was "we are in a whale shark theme park". Pop in a roller coaster and a hot dog stand and we have an instant attraction for the entire family. An Imax theatre would be nice, too.Don't get me wrong. I loved swimming with the whale sharks. But when I saw ... Leer más

  • Spadefish Have to Dig Their Way Out of a Hole

    de Tim Grollimund ...
    "Spadefish are the only species of its family that reside in the Western Atlantic. In the Pacific there are at least six species of spadefish, where they are also commonly known as batfish. While they are common in the Keys, in other parts of the Caribbean they are not as prevalent. I've seen schools numbering in the hundreds from the south end of Molasses all the way up to Carysfort. One of the ... Leer más

  • Get The Reef Growing... Coral Restoration Is Coming To A Reef Near You

    de Tim Grollimund ...
    There is good news and bad news about our coral reefs. The bad news is: reefs around the world are in trouble. A host of factors contribute to the decline of reef ecosystems. The good news is: there is a wholehearted effort to combat reef degradation at the local level. The Coral Restoration Foundation, in Key Largo, Florida, is a pioneer in growing and transplanting coral on the reefs in the ... Leer más

  • The Great Hamlet Debate

    Marine Life, #6

    de Tim Grollimund ...
    Series Libro 6 - Marine Life
    There has been a debate for decades on how many species of hamlets exist. The original classification was for one species (Hypoplectrus unicolor), and color variations didn't matter enough to differentiate a new species. As this debate has raged, scientific research is shedding light on the differences - or not - for the many color variations of the hamlet group. The crux of the debate runs like ... Leer más

  • Diving the Spiegel Grove... Wreck or Reef?

    Wreck, #1

    de Tim Grollimund ...
    Series Libro 1 - Wreck
    The Spiegel Grove has a wealth of opportunity for great diving. Not only because it is an icon of Key Largo, it's just plain fun, sprinkled with a bit of a challenge at times. I have been on the Spiegel in a wide variety of conditions... less than 30 feet of visibility, with loads of current, to clear 80-plus visibility days when you can drop down, instead of pulling yourself down, to the wreck. ...

  • The Less Traveled Reef: Going Deep Reveals Abundant and Unusual Sealife

    de Tim Grollimund ...
    There are a few places in the outer edges of the Florida Keys reef tract that are a whole different world. Deep French, Deep Elbow and Deep Molasses are quite different than the shallower namesakes. The contours begin around 50 feet, and usually bottom out in the 80 to 90 foot range. Nitrox is the preferred gas on these dives, with a mix of 32 to 36 percent preferred. Once you are down the line ... Leer más

  • Look for the Fish in a Box

    Marine Life, #8

    de Tim Grollimund ...
    Series Libro 8 - Marine Life
    When I'm on the reef and I want a chuckle, I look for a fish in a box. Not a cardboard box of fish like you find in the bait shop, but a body box that fits perfectly and is color matched to its occupant. I bet I have seen some sort of fish in a box on every dive. On some occasions we find juveniles, too. They are about the size of a quarter and look like floating marbles.I'm referring, of course, ... Leer más

    Marine Life, #9

    de Tim Grollimund ...
    Series Libro 9 - Marine Life
    Lots of reasons are given for the collective behavior of schooling. There is a whole host of scientific literature to study on the topic. Schooling occurs in up to eighty percent of species at some point in their lifetime. Protection from predators, breeding and searching for food are the top reasons cited for schooling behavior. There is also an advantage in riding the vortices created by the ... Leer más

  • Goliath Grouper... Gentle Giants of the Reef

    Marine Life, #4

    de Tim Grollimund ...
    Series Libro 4 - Marine Life
    I have always had a fascination for Goliath groupers. When I first met them, they were called jewfish. Itʼs common knowledge that Goliath groupers were nearly wiped out by overfishing up through the 1980s. They were protected beginning in 1990, and remain so today. Nowadays I see some talk from the fishing community that Goliath groupers are becoming so prevalent on the reef itʼs affecting ... Leer más

  • Wherever You Go, There's No Place Like Home

    de Tim Grollimund ...
    Don't get me wrong - there are many, many places I'd love to see. But coming home to the Florida Keys is an exotic destination in itself. Just look at our statistics. Millions of visitors a year come here to see the third largest barrier reef system in the world. Not too shabby. So when I got home from the Philippines, it was like coming home to a vacation that was interrupted by another vacation. ... Leer más
