This Russian T34 tank was created as a diving attraction to relieve pressure on the surrounding dive sites. In addition the tank in the picture can no longer cause any damage or suffering but it is a great photo opportunity.

It's THE MAGICAL PLACE. At 13 meters you have a seamount with hidrotermal activity. This brings lots of live to the surface and unique life forms in shalow vents. Schols of Barracuda, tunas, bonitos and other pelagic fish are a certain! Be carefull with boilling water, gas, ammonia and currents or swells. Once I broke a camera there!
