The two spot snapper fish are known for their schooling behavior, particularly during the day when they form large, dense groups. This behavior is believed to be a defense mechanism against predators and may also play a role in their foraging strategy. At night, these snappers often disperse to hunt solo or in smaller groups, relying on their keen senses to find food. The video provides an intimate look at their schooling behavior, capturing the way they move together as one organism, their bodies aligned and responsive to the slightest change in direction or speed.
