The scyphostoma larva (the fixed polyp-like stage in the life cycle of a jellyfish, which reproduces asexually) of Nausithoe punctata bears a striking superficial resemblance to a hydroid and it lives commensal within sponges. This hydroid-like larva forms a branching tree-like growth within the body of the sponge, the polyp mouths and their tentacles projecting out of the oscula (mouthlike aperture) of the sponge. The mouth of the polypite is surrounded by an annulus of about 40 solid filiform tentacles. The ephyra (immature medusa stage) of Nausithoe arise by strobilization (asexual reproduction by division into segments) from this larva. The young ephyra has only 4 gastric filaments and no tentacles. The species occurs in the North Atlantic Ocean in the Mediterranean Sea and circumglobal in warm waters. Max. diameter of adult Nausithoe punctata is 1.5cm. Many Brittle stars Ophiothrix sp. and a Red throated Ascidian Herdmania momus just below. Palau, Iro Wreck 7°17'39.7 N 134°25'15.18 E at 10m depth

These spiderlike arrow crabs can be observed best during the night while they hunt. I discovered these two crabs during a night dive at the reef in front of our holiday villa south of Kralendijk.

$In large aggregations, Yellow Sea Cucumbers Colochirus robustus are often misidentified as corals. Colochirus robustus occurs in the tropical Central Indo-Pacific in a depth range from 1-25m, max. length 7cm. When feeding, the species extends the branchy feeding arms into the current. There are multiple reproduction options; instead of spawning, when getting large, the species can split into two: In a few days, the head end is ready to leave, whilst the rear end takes about a week to grow an own head! \nThese specimen aggregate on an old whip coral overgrown by sponges, hydroids and ascidians. \nTriton Bay, Indonesia \n3°55'0.858 S 134°6'6.102 E at 12m depth$
