Liminal underwater caves
There are cool cave fish that folks in the aquarium hobby keep that after generations of no light lost their eyes
So they're just fish with no eyes. If I remember right its a kind of tetra? Edit: thats actually the kind of fish pictured it seems like! Some people keep them as pets :)
"Stygobites" considering the root word is derived from the river styx, I'm getting hell raiser cenobite vibes.
WTF? Flying fish? Gotta be AI.
It’s just clear water
I'm guessing low sunlight means low amount of life growing
Also no wind to stir up sediment. What is surprising is that these divers have kept the water clear. Kicking up a bunch of sediment and blinding yourself is one of the many hazards of cave diving.
Jesus Christ. You really think I am an imbecile? It is a joke, dude, a joke.
Chill, “dude,” it’s not an indictment of your intelligence, just your ability to tell a joke.
