00:00These are the unique stories about the fish here in Amazing Earth.

00:05This is not a Martian invader.

00:07This is the life of a Blackwater diver and award-winning underwater photographer,

00:12Scott Gutsy Tuazon, in the Philippines.

00:31Did you see those two?

00:33Their eyes are red and their gills are almost black.

00:38Don't worry, this is not a Martian invader.

00:41This is the life of a Blackwater diver and award-winning underwater photographer,

00:46Scott Gutsy Tuazon, in the Philippines.

00:51The jellyfish is actually feeding on tiny little shrimp.

00:59They're most likely krill.

01:01Hey, there's more!

01:03I think they're going to compete in the Best in National Costume Competition.

01:07That is a sub-adult crocodile needlefish.

01:11Normally, those fish, they stay at the surface.

01:15That's where they usually live and they feed.

01:18One of them is about to be shot even though Christmas is still far away.

01:23But it would be better if you could see the tip of the arrow, right?

01:27You're surprised, right? There's a tip!

01:30It's called a phronema. It's a type of crustacean as well.

01:35Jellyfish, crocodile needlefish, and phronema are just three of the marine animals

01:40that Gutsy encountered while diving last night.

01:44But what is Blackwater diving?

01:47Blackwater diving is basically diving in open ocean at night.

01:57It should be really deep.

02:02At first glance, you'd think that they're floating in space.

02:05They look like they were born on a different planet.

02:09But these animals are really not in space but in the ocean.

02:14These are just a few of the works of the multi-awarded underwater photographer

02:19and Blackwater diving expert, Scott Gutsy Tuazon.

02:24Almost everything was just memorable because you don't get to see that stuff

02:31when you're doing just a regular night dive and day dive.

02:36I'm really a big fan of jellyfish so I love all sorts of jellyfish.

02:40Tubataha, one time I had a tripod fish.

02:44The diamond squid is another fascinating creature that I really like.

02:51The larval fish that you see underwater during Blackwater is really interesting.

02:57There's really a lot of memorable creatures and I still haven't seen it all.

03:02When it comes to Blackwater diving, the Philippines is still irreplaceable.

03:08You know, Anilao is really, it's so close and it's one of the best for me.

03:14Aurora province, Pacific side is also nice.

03:18Every time I run trips to Tubataha, I always make it a point to do Blackwater there as well.

03:35Good buoyancy skills is the most important for me.

03:38If you don't watch your buoyancy, you can find yourself just drifting down

03:42to depths that you probably shouldn't be at in the middle of the ocean at night.

03:47If you thought that Blackwater diving is just a simple hobby or recreational activity,

03:53think again.

03:55There are a lot of people like Gatsy in our ocean studies.

04:01It helps a lot with the scientists because a lot of scientists don't actually get to go out in the field, right?

04:09So the only thing is we're not collecting specimens, but we're taking photos.

04:13And scientists are seeing new types of behavior, seeing new types of species,

04:19seeing new types of relationships.

04:22So that's why a lot of the scientists have joined the Blackwater photo group on Facebook

04:28because they realize the advantage of being able to see all these photographs day in and day out.

04:40Salamat sa Blackwater diver at underwater photographer na tulad ni Gatsy Tuazon,

04:46isang Amazing Earth Hero.

04:51Kaya sa mga kapuso nating on the go, tutukan nyo ang live stream ng ating programa sa official accounts ng GMA Network,
