Bohadschia [Bohadschia]

Description

Bohadschia sea cucumbers are often seen cruising along the seafloor, using their tube feet to move slowly over sand, rubble, or reef flats. Divers may notice their leathery skin and distinctive patterns, which can vary by species and location. At night or in low light, they can become more active, making them a rewarding find for patient observers.
