Info from Licensor: "Clione is a member of the shellfish family and is called the "sea angel" due to its appearance.
I was able to see clione during the drift ice diving held every February and March by Robinson Diving Service in Shiretoko Utoro, Hokkaido.
The temperature of the seawater is -2 degrees
The depth of the water is not deep, but you will need to wear a dry suit for diving.
