What's New in Red Sea Creatures

1.6.2

August 11, 2026

Two new things on a species page, and a fix to who gets the credit. How an animal breeds. Whether it scatters its eggs into open water, hides them in a nest, carries them in its mouth or gives birth to live young. Whether it stays one sex for life, or starts male and turns female later - which is the ordinary thing to do for a clownfish, and the reason the biggest one in an anemone is always the mother. Every term comes with a line of plain language underneath. Where the name comes from. That unpronounceable Latin is usually a description, once you know which words it is built from. A crab that walks around holding anemones in its claws is named after the leather glove of a Roman boxer. A lionfish is simply called "soldier". We show the meaning of both halves of the name, and name our source. Also on a page: other names the same animal goes by, grouped by language. And photo credits now follow the photo. A gallery shot by several people used to be signed by one of them; each picture is now credited to whoever took it. The species screen also reads in a better order now: the facts table comes before the long descriptions. Thanks for diving in with us!
