Field Notes

Habitat:

Tropical parts of the western Atlantic, and the Caribbean. They are found in more coastal and tropical reef areas where the water is shallow and clear.

Notes:

These little guys were everywhere in this area once you start looking carefully otherwise they are easily overlooked as a bit of algae. Really very beautiful.
