I think the most interesting marine behavior is schooling. Schooling is when a group of fish swimming in unison, changing directions in an instant, yet never colliding with each other. They all move in the same direction and at the same speed. This is very beneficial for them because it's more safe for them and the chance of surviving is greater. They can confuse the predators that they are a larger organism by forming a large school. Schooling also allows them to find more predator, and have a better sense of migrating and avoiding the predators. So it is very important to marine ecosystems. I think this behavior is cool because it's amazing that fish can form school, while human can not do it. Fish is very fast and they all move in the same direction without running into each other like human when trying to do it.
