Footage captured on June 29, 2010, during the first remotely operated vehicle (ROV) dive of Indonesia-USA ocean exploration expedition down to Kawio Barat volcano. 

The video shows some of the stunning marine life encountered during the dive. A field of clams (possibly chemosynthetic) was imaged shortly before the ROV came across a hydrothermal vent plume.
