Beneath the ocean, the octopus has very rich proteins which are essential for its predators. In order to stay alive, it has to possess some truly enormous skills. The octopus ancestors have been trying to live in the ocean for almost 500 million years. We all know that the octopus has 3 hearts but in order to survive from predators, it should have surviving patterns or techniques.  The most important survival feature is that camouflage, in only 3 tens of a second it can completely change its color and pattern, it is called rapid adaptive coloration.

The reefs provide a safe haven for almost millions of animals including fish, crabs, shrimp, clams, snails and many more rely on and adapt to the coral reef lifestyle. Each one of them plays a vital role in protecting the health of the reef. Found in warm, polar, and shallow waters, the corals have a symbiotic relationship with zooxanthellae. Living inside the polyp body provides carbohydrates for the coral where in turn the coral provides home and carbon dioxide for the algae.

What makes so interesting is that a 75 feet prehistoric shark thought to be extinct makes way to the surface. Jonas has to team up with the research facility and risk his own li...
