  • A basic overview of major aquatic life groupings (kingdoms and phyla). Factual information that dispels myths of potentially dangerous aquatic life
  • An overview of basic aquatic life interactions and associations. Responsible human interactions with aquatic life

The undersea environment varies greatly from area to area but no more so than in it's inhabitants.
