Campanularia roberti [Campanularia roberti]
Description
Divers often encounter Campanularia roberti as a slender, branching hydroid colony attached to rocks, pier pilings, or other hard substrates. Its tiny, bell-shaped polyps line the branches and can appear as a subtle series of “cups” along the colony. With careful observation, you’ll notice how it responds to water movement—an understated but fascinating display of living architecture.
