This nudibranch is distinguished by its branchial plume which has a very specific form, resembling a forest of 5 baobabs.
It is often seen on sandy bottoms, more than on the coral itself.
The tiger shark has slender marks similars to the lines of tigers, hence its name.
When it is juvenile, these marks are round and not vertical. They change when it grows.
Mammals have a horizontal tail.
Fishes have a vertical fin.
Parrotfish create a protective envelope around them when they are sleeping.
So, don't put the light on them during night dive to don't to wake them up and break this envelope.
