Spadefish
The Atlantic
Spadefish is a flat, disc-shaped fish similar to angels, but not related.
They feed on small crustaceans, invertebrates,
and can even be seen nibbling on the tentacles of jellyfish!
Schools of spadefish can be composed of hundreds of fish.

Schools of
spadefish are so big, a safety stop
under our dive boat is seldom lonely! For example, the photograph in the
background of this page shows you what it is like to be in the midst
of one of these vast schools, holding on to the anchor line! |
