Euphyllia paraglabrescens [Euphyllia paraglabrescens]
Description
Euphyllia paraglabrescens can be recognized by its fleshy coral form and the way its tentacles extend to form a soft, moving fringe. Divers frequently find it in areas with steady water flow, where the polyps fan out to feed and the coral’s colors stand out against the reef background.
