Edwardsia maroccana [Edwardsia maroccana]

Description

On suitable rocky bottoms, divers may find this soft coral as a low, branching or encrusting colony with fine, closely spaced polyps. Its appearance is often understated at first glance, but up close the colony’s living texture and gentle polyp movement can be quite striking.
