Dancing Anemone

As a scuba diver, I got a chance to see many amazing living creatures underwater. Sea anemone is one of my favorites. I particularly liked this one because it was like performing a dance. This was also taken during a fish survey which was used to establish a fish database for researchers and universities. They could used it for different studies e.g. fish species and their abundance, how weather and coastal environment affects fish habitats. My travel and involvement in the fish survey would help people to understand the fish life in this coastal region better.
