What you are looking at

Explore.org streams this view of the Tropical Reef Habitat at the Aquarium of the Pacific in Long Beach, California. The exhibit is modeled on the reefs of Palau in the western Pacific and holds more than 1,000 animals, so the camera shows a busy scene of reef fish moving over rock and coral.

Look for surgeonfish, tangs, wrasses and other colorful reef fish schooling across the glass, along with sharks such as blacktip reef sharks and rays that cruise through the larger open water. The aquarium holds regular diver presentations in this exhibit, when a diver in the water feeds animals and talks with visitors, so at times you may see a diver among the fish. When the aquarium is closed and lights are dimmed, the view can be darker and calmer.

The stream plays as live video through YouTube. Long Beach is on Pacific time. A practical tip: explore.org's page for this camera lists the times of live diver presentations, which are the most lively moments to watch. At other times, the exhibit makes a relaxing background view, much like a very large home aquarium.
