0:27:48 > 0:27:52Today, we are going to look at some tropical fish.

0:27:54 > 0:27:58Mum says the colours are beautiful. I can't wait to see them.

0:28:00 > 0:28:03Are you excited?

0:28:03 > 0:28:04Oh, look!

0:28:06 > 0:28:10- Look, can you see any of the ones darting back there?- Aw!

0:28:10 > 0:28:12Want to have a look up here? Ohhh!

0:28:13 > 0:28:16Some orangey ones there as well.

0:28:16 > 0:28:20- Can you see these ones right up there?- Yeah.

0:28:20 > 0:28:24Lovely and colourful. 'They're incredible!'

0:28:24 > 0:28:28- Aw! Look at these, these are the angel fish.- Beautiful.

0:28:28 > 0:28:31Can you see their big long whiskers?

0:28:31 > 0:28:33'Some are blue and stripy.

0:28:33 > 0:28:36'And some bright orange.

0:28:36 > 0:28:38'Some are white, like birds.'

0:28:38 > 0:28:42There are some black balloon mollies as well.

0:28:42 > 0:28:45They're lovely, aren't they?

0:28:45 > 0:28:48'Some look like they've got lights inside them.'

0:28:48 > 0:28:52Look at this coral swaying in the sea there.

0:28:52 > 0:28:56We've also got some little lobsters. They're like baby lobsters.

0:28:56 > 0:29:00They're chewing and eating lots of things. Ohhh!

0:29:00 > 0:29:03'Then I see a huge fish.'

0:29:03 > 0:29:06It's huge. Are you saying hello?

0:29:06 > 0:29:09'Floating so gracefully.

0:29:11 > 0:29:17'So I ask Mum what she thinks is the most graceful creature in the sea.'

0:29:17 > 0:29:22I think the whale because it swims so beautifully.

0:29:22 > 0:29:25- And they sing to each other across the oceans.- Sing?

0:29:25 > 0:29:29- Oh, yes.- Mummy, do you have any whale music?

0:29:29 > 0:29:34I think I might, actually.

0:29:34 > 0:29:39This piece is very graceful, but see what you think.

0:29:39 > 0:29:42It's a piece called Nimrod by Edward Elgar.

0:29:47 > 0:29:51MUSIC: "Nimrod" by Edward Elgar

0:29:52 > 0:29:56Oooh, we're over the ocean.

0:30:06 > 0:30:09Now we are under the sea.

0:30:28 > 0:30:31There, look!

0:30:31 > 0:30:32A white whale!

0:30:34 > 0:30:36He's beautiful.

0:31:08 > 0:31:11THE WHALE SINGS

0:31:11 > 0:31:14Did you hear that? He's singing.

0:31:16 > 0:31:19WHALE SINGING CONTINUES

0:31:35 > 0:31:38The turtles want the whale to follow them.

0:31:57 > 0:32:00Two more whales!

0:32:00 > 0:32:03They're singing to each other.

0:32:23 > 0:32:26SINGING CONTINUES

0:32:51 > 0:32:54Awwww! He's waving with his tail.

0:32:56 > 0:32:58Bye-bye, whale!

0:33:06 > 0:33:09'That was amazing.

0:33:09 > 0:33:14'I tell Mum all about the great white whales singing to each other.'

0:33:14 > 0:33:18He was jumping out from the water and he landed back in!

0:33:18 > 0:33:20Oh! Come with me.

0:33:22 > 0:33:23My very own fish.

0:33:23 > 0:33:28I can see their beautiful colours as they swim around.

0:33:28 > 0:33:31Not quite as big as a whale, but just as pretty.

0:33:31 > 0:33:36That music made me think of whales.

0:33:36 > 0:33:38What did it make you think of?
