Andres's Sea Anemone [Edwardsia andresi]
Description
Divers may spot this sea anemone anchored to hard substrates like rocks or reef faces, often with a delicate, tentacled look that sways gently with the current. When conditions are calm, its feeding tentacles can appear more extended, giving it a subtle, colorful presence in the benthic landscape.
