Who am I
Christine Sbick
biologist and historian

Education: I dive since my university time. A thorough diving training I received at the Technical University in Berlin. For six months we went through here alone, the ABC training to the next half year to complete the course. Our course led us to conclude to Corsica, where we emerged from the beautiful islands of Lavezzi. Thoroughly trained, but without apparent I was following the PADI training is not difficult, I went through in Australia on the Great Barrier Reef. The love of diving made me never leave me and so my interests always led back to the sea. Thanks to my training as a biologist I was entitled to a marine biology internship in southern France at the Institute of Banjul visit, which deepened my knowledge of species of the Mediterranean and further told me much about the small creatures of the sea.
But the reef-building corals have always been my dream and I wanted to know more about life in the coral reef. So I completed my dive training in Cairns in Cairns Dive Centre, where I took off my Rescue Diver and Divemaster my 2001 and gained practical experience in my work in the Outer Reef on the boat and the loading of CDC.
but I closed my training as a young school teacher with the Second State Examination in Biology and History and taught from many years of wonderful people. I still like to work as a school teacher at the high school.
Amed Scuba Diving school I founded, to create jobs in Bali and do my best to get more education on environmental and at the same time, to my great hobby of marine biology to be closer. Therefore Amed Scuba is the protection of coral reefs and the environment is a major concern. I hope to achieve this protection by I the people who work with Amed Scuba, where our guests to convey the love for this unique and wonderful ecosystem can. For only what one knows who loves you.

glad I also own on tours around Bali and explain to our guests from Amed Scuba more about the country, people and culture. We dive different dive locations on the island.
My job here at Amed Scuba is, above all, in addition to diving the Internet work. I am at the store or on the computer to people in their answer questions and advise and give more tips when I can. Slowly, I teach English and try a sound theoretical training for my people to achieve. The Practice then lies in the hands of the instructor.

Bali's waters are generally warm and it can spend wonderful beach holiday. The divers expect when diving in Bali with 27-29 ° Celsius pleasant consistently warm water temperatures. Going on an expedition under water so rich in one to three millimeters thick wetsuits to protect the body from cooling down. Snorkeling but one should not forget to wear a T-shirt in order to get any sunburn. Bring it with his own diving equipment, so you can borrow at almost all dive centers weight belts and bottles. DIN adapters are rare in Bali. It is therefore best to bring its own adapter. AMED

services a wreck dive at the wooden Japanese Wreck or a deep dive to Gilli Selang around, where the flow can be partially at full and new moon something fierce, but in August is also the possibility to see hammerhead sharks. Diving in Bali is extremely varied.






JAPANESE SHIP WRECK






located at the southern end of Amed, the district Lipah, where a small wooden ship wreck in only three to fifteen feet is deep and is encrusted with soft corals. On the wreck itself is not so much known But to achieve it easily from the beach. South of the wreck is a wonderful species-rich coral garden, which slopes gently on a hillside and flows into a low cliff and inhabited by very different animals. The current account part of the rotation, so that quiet sections quickly lead to a drift dive, if you know the conditions here.




















GILI Selang





the initially flat, very species-rich coral gardens, the visitor reaches after a short trip with a typical Balinese outrigger boat. North of the island is a shallow lagoon with magnificent corals in all colors and shapes. An intact ecosystem with an impressive species richness. may be the discoverer of this small underwater paradise expect different colored schools of fish, by which he dive through and which are the staple food for many reef inhabitants. Therefore can be observed at this site, larger predatory fish such as barracuda and reef sharks. In the period around full and new moon, it is not possible to umtauchen the island, for here cross Two strong currents that can pull the diver in an elevator down. The impressive cliff drops at a 45 degree angle into unreachable depths, but with some luck you can also admire here hammerheads. This dive should only be done with an experienced dive guide.





BATU TIGA (three rocks)
three rocks lying off the resort of Candi Dasa in the sea. reached by boat to the dive sites comfortably in less than 20 minutes. The rocks are surrounded by cooler water of the Lombok road, so they are not only rich in plankton and consequently rich in fish but you can often encounter reef sharks. Sleeping white tip reef sharks can be found for example in the "Shark Cave" on Gili Biaha. Due to the partial flow can be violent but also admire beautiful open hard and soft corals.

TULAMBEN





Tulamben The site is located on the busy thoroughfare from Denpasar to Sigaraja. Right of the road you will find a long-drawn bay of black volcanic rock, where the USAT Liberty north and south is down, you can dive along a heavily sloping wall. Between these two dive sites we find a shallower coral gardens which is ideal for snorkeling and all sorts of macro contains living organisms. On the steep wall is a complex and species-rich ecosystem can with great coral and sponge growth observed, which is enlivened by a variety of different reef fish and creatures. One of the most popular dive sites in Bali is certainly the USAT Liberty. At a depth of about 3-30m depth in 1942 sunken ship wreck lies close to the beach in the Bay of Tulamben. If you dive in Tulamben off in the morning calm, so we understand why the magazine called the Asian Diver 134 meters long and 17 meter wide ship as the best wreck diving site in Asia. The diver is in contact with a heavily vegetated and inhabited by many reef fish boat that is including the home of a long, solitary living barracuda, sweetlips many, many different types of angelfish, surgeonfish and a huge swarm become mackerel. The animals are all accustomed to the divers and swim left completely around the visitors. The ship is also recommended for very night dives.





BLUE LAGOON





north of Padang Bai finds a beautiful little bay to relax and dive. If it is exploring under water, the visitor from a shallow reef, which is interesting for all levels of experience in diving. Inside the flat, flow-free bay antler coral determine the image. The diver dives further, he finds larger coral heads and anemones, which are inhabited by many living things Kleist. Outside the bay, the dive result in a drift dive.












Especially two dive sites here in approached the months of June to August again. In Crystal Bay, the holiday has discovered a great opportunity in one of the pennant fish cleaning stations a sunfish (Mola mola) and at Manta Point can be seen regularly giant manta rays. Diving on Nusa Penida, Bali diving is at its best.
Crystal Bay itself is situated in a sheltered from the flow channel, shallow bay of Nusa Penida. Sometimes there are stalls inside the channel. Particular caution should be at the outer edge of the bay and the central rock, since the flow is particularly strong. Should be considered by the flow in the channel between Nusa Penida and Nusa Lembongan is located, the dive at a flow rate of 30m/min to be really difficult! Without an experienced instructor should appear here no way! Near the cliff you can see not only the famous Mola molas but also large tunas, eagle rays and sharks.
Manta Point is protected is protected from currents in the south of Nusa Penida. In shallow water waiting for you that this magical giant fly on a pass. Due to the strong surf that prevails here sometimes, there are no coral at this site, but the Mantas are reward enough! But
Nusa Penida
offers other very attractive dive sites where you can drift along the beautiful cliffs along with corals.










This beautiful island in the north-west of Bali is part of the Bali Barat National Park. Here are the ecosystems of Bali are under special protection of the park administration. Only a limited amount of divers is allowed. The trip begins therefore at the park headquarters to the island. The fishing is prohibited completely, so you can find on the island of deer and a particularly large one-off Species abundance before. Around the 1.5 km long and 500m wide island is a coral belt moves with a breathtaking growth and very different diving spots as item Dua or the coral garden. On the island itself, you can discover the oldest temple in Bali, which will attract huge crowds at the full moon ceremonies. A sleep on the island is allowed only believing Hindus. Menjangan is certainly one of the most beautiful dive sites in Bali.

life in the coral reef

shows Diving in Bali visitors to the underwater landscapes of Bali a great diversity in one of the most varied diving in the world and with our base Amed Scuba entdecket your work with us a variety of life that is determined by the daily rhythm of the reef. Life in the coral reef is limited by the scarce resources available to the reef with the nutrients and the limited space of the reef are available. One of the ways to share this available space more efficiently with each other is through a temporal change in the use of the coral reef resources. This life in the coral reef in Bali is subjected to a change in daily routine. That is, in the same Riffabschnitt the visitor encounters at different times of the day here in Amed different animals. At dawn is on the USAT Liberty at Tulamben, at the drop-off or in the garden of the coral reef especially busy, as some fish before bed still proceed to food intake and to make these nascent animals in search of their breakfast. The most likely example of the reef wall in Tulamben to see the coral garden of Gili Selang has, therefore, the diving in Bali at dawn. The shark has brought his successful night fighter behind him and slowly, the large white tip reef shark up to 2m tired and goes to bed, where you can find him, for example, in Kubu under a coral. One can recognize the danger for people in his white shark tip of the tail- and dorsal fin.
are parrot fish and trigger fish in colorful reef Jemeluk or awake at the Japanese wreck and leave their shelter at night to search for food. What remains of the woven out of slime through "sleeping bag" of the parrot fish, which has protected him overnight from hunters who can tell him otherwise by the smell and the tasty snack then can not escape. At dusk, the parrot fish spits out this transparent mucus layer that protects him at nightfall before his attackers. So that it remains undetected by this. Amed Scuba dive, therefore, before each night our guests as possible not in the eyes of parrot fish light up as they then wake up from sleep, run away from their "sleeping bag" and thereby be found and eaten by hunters may possible. Awakening the parrot fish, they eat away at the coral of the reef. If you dive in Bali as the Coral Gardens Kubu, so you can see this nagging noise significantly. There are about 80 different parrot species, most of them are very colorful and have a bar bill as teeth. This consists of coalesced teeth. With this beak bite the parrot fish, the coral stone and leave the remains as a white sand, for example tropical white beach of Padang Bai in the north-east of Bali building. The Amed in the region, frequently found head parrot fish live together in large groups and is one of the giants of the reef.
Triggerfish are found in different species, which can be up to 75 cm long. It engages the trigger fish to dive even if he defends his nest egg. The trigger fish followed the diver who has entered into its funnel-shaped area, if it wants to escape to the surface. It is therefore recommended vertically out of the area of the push to swim out.
At the base of the food pyramid you will find the reef, the plankton, is this distinction between zooplankton and phytoplankton. The Zooplankton consists of animals, many of which rise at night to feed on during the day there swimming and plant photosynthetic phytoplankton. On the night of Amed Scuba diving in Jemeluk as we encourage our divers for a moment their lamps cover and run fast hand movements under water. Suddenly, small flashes of light appear in the water as of fireflies. This is especially the unicellular alga Noctiluca, which looks like under the microscope like a tiny balloon.
For example, eat eels, which are found in Bunutan and Tulamben, from the plankton in the water floating around. About a Third of their body they put out from a sand cave, into which they retreat when threatened once again.
The coral polyps could without this tiny phytoplankton that serves them as food do not survive. The corals, however, are again ready to chew on parrots and triggerfish, which leaves under water scraping noises.
only 10 percent of the energy is given by a dietary level of the food pyramid to the next. The plankton is therefore only tiny and multiplies very quickly. Under the microscope, one can include in a drop of sea water often 100 000 phytoplankton organisms.
AMED SCUBA appreciates it very much as our guests lead to early to the dive sites in Bali in order - if our guests want to wake up with the fish under the water and enjoy the biodiversity at sunrise to. Particularly beautiful are these morning dives at the wreck of the US.Liberty. The wreck is 120m long and 30m wide a transport ship, which covered wonderful, many reef provides a good hiding place and home.
The transport ship in Tulamben is overgrown with coral, home to the tiny algae. These algae are called zooxanthellae also need sunlight in order to conduct photosynthesis. With the help of sunlight, Water and CO2 are the algae during photosynthesis ago sugar and oxygen. In the morning hours the algae in the coral that process, as the rising sun finally delivers the required for this light. Thus, both the living algae in the coral and the phytoplankton floating in the water much of the oxygen since the bind we breathe, while the free carbon dioxide. Since carbon dioxide is one of the greenhouse gases that contribute to marine life to reducing the greenhouse effect! At night, the diet of the coral polyps of the tiny plankton that they filter from the water.
There are both hard corals and soft corals. The stony corals build reef, with its limestone skeleton and their polyps mostly take their food at night or in the flow. The tentacles of the polyps, which are equipped with stinging cells filter so that the plankton from the sea. During the day the coral polyps often move back into their limestone skeleton, where they are protected from predators.
soft corals, however usually eat during the day and often also provide sea creatures such as clown fish protection. This clown fish family lives in the protection on the tentacles of a sea anemone, which belongs to the soft corals. The tentacles contain stinging cells with a nettle poison. Followed a careless fish the clown fish in coral its because he wants to eat these, the following fish are killed by the venom of the coral. The coral is an animal that feeds on, among other things of the flesh of the fish. It also includes uneaten food from the clown fish. The clown fish and next to the leftover food from the anemone parasites, but also cleans and protects them in this way. Even as a young clown fish eggs come in contact with the poison corals and becomes as it were immune. They develop as a fish mucus layer that protects them from the anemone venom. Between the clownfish and its anemone has thus developed a symbiosis, a co-Laben, which led to the mutual benefit of both animals of different species. The color is, however, most of the people living in the coral algae. When have the phenomenon of coral bleaching, the leave their tiny algae coral, which is outside the pale of the first coral looks. Hand, the coral is not within half a year back to their coral, this is condemned to death!
moray eels, which we find at many dive sites in Bali, are shaped like snakes, which are to the fish and not one of the reptiles as they have a Flossensaum. Here in Bunutan you AMED SCUBA diving, for example, a Netzmuräne show that is up to 2m long. Spends the day this eel in a large sponge or other morays, you can find in Amed at various dive sites can be seen in rock crevices or coral blocks. If the moray day the offers opportunity for grabs by small swimming fish, but in the open water meet, they usually only at night. In the morning you will meet the returning of moray Thus, in her home, where you can watch how they constantly opens and closes its mouth. This leads the eel oxygen-rich water over their gills to breathe.
In the course of the morning diving in the reefs of Amed, Tulamben and Kubu more fish that have found ways to protect themselves from their predators. They are camouflaged or have bright colors that indicate their enemies that they are poisonous or inedible.
Lionfish you can see both night-and day! your spines contain a poison that can be debilitating or deadly to other fish. In humans, produces a contact with the fin rays very severe pain. But an allergic reaction can cause death in humans.

box fish they have surrounding bony plates that protect the animal as a defense against attackers, but also the skin is protected by a poisonous mucus.
also a hedgehog is not a fish meal as attractive as it protects itself by its spines, which he can set up in an emergency.
the sun has risen, so many fish are easy prey in the sunlight. Of this fact in Tulamben as mackerel together circling swarms.
by poison also the wonderfully colored nudibranchs are protected. Most snails are active during the day and eat small animals, sponges and soft corals on which they have usually specialized. They breathe through the visible external gills, sitting like little crowns on their backs. Slugs often live alone, but they come together to mate and bear on the internal fertilization of her eggs. The eggs are held together by a gelatinous mass. This Colorful gelatinous layer protects from bacteria and predators. The beautiful colors indicate the robbers, we are poisonous!
Another change in the diurnal variation one finds in the dusk.
night dives show us the reef in Jemeluk and Amed in a different light!
moray eels leave their crevices and swim around in open water. The twilight time is the best hunting season, since distinguish the outlines of the fish now have the sinking sun. Blinded by the low-lying light, some fish that did not withdraw in time, are easy prey.
turtles look around on their beds when they are not scared and therefore wake up, they unmoved, remaining several hours under water. reef wake up again, to hunt. Of divers but they are not interested.
Many of the nocturnal fish are red, because, at night when no light falls on they work, mostly black. Only when the flashlight is aimed directly at them, you see its color. They also have large eyes to see better in the dark can.
with Amed Scuba Diving in Bali, especially in the north-east of the island with the beautiful coral reefs of Amed, Tulamben, Kubu Bunutan and thus offer at any time of day, many interesting and varied diving. As a biologist I would like them in this wonderful world of water get closer!

On Amed Scubas dive trips to Bali and all the liveaboards in the area near Amed, Tulamben, Kubu, Candi Dasa and Padang Bai you can see the whole beauty and diversity of coral reefs in Bali.

to life in the coral reef is, as mentioned above, the very important phytoplankton and zooplankton, which is at the top of the food chain and thus provide the basis for all life on coral reefs. The biologist Afam Merkwunye mbH explored this in the BGG Aquadom Berlin society for large aquariums.
