I went diving in a freshwater lake that is in the bottom of a volcanic crater outside Granada. The dive was a little different than a normal pleasure dive though because I was helping some researchers to spear fish for a study that they were doing. Apparently the government introduced a fish into the lake and with it a parasite that east the eyes of one particular native species. This made them easier to spear, but it was really sad to see all the blind fish.
