The day starts to set in the coral reef and soon the parrotfish stops nibbling on the corals, which it likes so much, and prepares its night's sleep. It knows the night falls quickly in the tropics and that its bed has to be ready by sunset. It fits comfortably between two corals, which offer shelter and cover, and begins to "drool". This is how it makes the cozy quilt that will protect it during the night. When it is fully enveloped in this transparent veil, it falls asleep gently, keeping its eyes, without eyelids, open in the dark night that now surrounds the reef.
