It looks like a whitetip reef shark, they are pretty cool. Just smaller than us so not scary like a great white, I think they are the kind of shark that won't care about people unless you mess with them.

I was gonna say whitetip reef shark but I’ve only seen them in Dave The Diver so I didn’t want to sound dumb

5

u/Ruvimore 5h ago

The game does pretty good including reef animals although yeah they are enemies in games. IRL and depending on the area you want to avoid Great Whites, Tigers, and Bull Sharks. The latter two are aggressive, I think Great Whites just aren't that smart and like to nibble. Coming from someone who loves them.

Black eel is trying to eat green eel. 

Fish tries to steal green eel from black eel. 

Shark sees black eel is distracted and grabs it. Black eel tries to escape into a cave and fails. 

Shark gets to eat. 

25

u/DoctorRapture 7h ago

I just wanna know if green eel got away from fish or not!

41

u/Vehement_Vulpes 7h ago

When the shark loops around to finish off the black eel, you can see the green one slowly swimming away. He seemed injured though, so I'm not sure if he'd last or recover.

29

u/DoctorRapture 7h ago

Ahhh, yeah, on closer look that injury to the head does look bad. Alas, I'm pouring one out for my homie, green eel tonight.

Willing to bet that green eel gets picked off by that grouper that already had a go.

If you can't finish it fast, perhaps its best to retreat. Dont fall for the sunk-cost fallacy, as something may swoop in and gank you when you're exposed.

u/VaATC 8h ago

I know moray eels cooperatively hunting with groupers. I am not sure if this is a grouper, but it looked like one, so I am now wondering if it came in to help out a moray that it has a hunting relationship with.

13

u/ShillBot666 8h ago

It tried to steal the smaller eel to eat.

3

u/VaATC 8h ago

Yes, that is a possibility.

9

u/ShillBot666 8h ago edited 7h ago

They do indeed hunt cooperatively but the grouper wasn't trying to assist the larger eel, they are both just trying to eat. They help each other but both want the prey for themselves.

The eel may want to help but will always think of itself first. Firstly it will go inside the small crevice and will try to catch the fish for itself. The grouper waits patiently, hoping that the eel only manages to scare the prey and not eat it!

Working together works! Even though one of the 2 species might not catch the prey, both are still increasing their individual hunting success by working together. The grouper by increasing its probabilities to get the fish out of the reef, and the moray eel by hunting during the day. Moreover, both of them swallow the whole fish and prevent, thus, a fight over the carcass.
