$Dendronephthya Soft Coral and Orange Cup Coral Tubastraea coccinea dominate the scenery at this colorful rock overhang. But there are Feather Star Fishes, Sponges and Colonial Ascidians too and a lot of Anthias and Damselfishes inbetween. \nIn the background there are Wrasses, Breams, Parrotfishes, Surgeonfishes and Butterflyfishes, a high biodiversity.\nTubastraea coccinea, a large-polyp stony coral, is not a reef building species. The coral extends beautiful translucent tentacles at night and in daytime on sunprotected areas of the reef like on this rock overhang. Tubastraea coccinea does not contain zooxanthellae in its tissues as many tropical corals do, allowing it to grow in complete darkness as long as it can capture enough food. \nTriton Bay, Westpapua, Indonesia 3°57'58.68 S 134°9'6.27 E at 9m depth$

This image shows the devastating effects of Coral bleaching as a result of the Global Warming. These corals are broken and dead due to the ocean temperature rising and causing loss of endosymbiotic algae. Here we see an example of the underwater effects on this coral reef ecosystem being totally destroyed. The location is Phi Phi, Andaman Sea, Krabi, Thailand. Sony mirrorless camera, with underwater housing and lighting used.

$Diploastrea heliopora occurs in the tropical Indo-West Pacific Ocean in a depth range from 3-15m from the Red Sea and East Africa to Western Australia, to the Ryukyu Islands and Fiji. This is one of the most easily recognised and least variable of all massive corals. The diameter of a single corallite is 8-10 millimetres. Diploastrea heliopora forms dense, robust, dome-shaped coral colonies. This slow-growing (2 to 6 mm/year) coral has the potential to yield continuous paleoclimate records spanning up to 1000 years for the warmest waters on Earth, the Indo-Pacific Warm Pool, and has a long fossil history as a single recognizable species. \nThe foto was taken in day time, the tentacles are retracted, as they extended only at night. \nSoanggi Island, Banda Sea, Indonesia 4°19'34.3773 S 129°42'21.3856 E at 14m depth$
