Renilla koellikeri [Renilla koellikeri]
Description
This species forms soft, colonial growths that can resemble small, rounded or lobed fans attached to hard substrate. Underwater, divers may notice a textured surface where many polyps sit close together, giving it a soft, intricate appearance. It’s a great find for photographers because it often blends beautifully with the surrounding seafloor while still standing out up close.
