Over the past several years I have occasionally encountered fleeting glimpses of tiny shrimp that live amongst the pseudo-tentacles of Ricordea florida.  On all the previous occasions that encountered one, I had never been properly equipped with a super-macro camera  [...]]]></description>

The unusual spherical vesicles of these Discosoma sanctithomae polyps once gave this morph a separate species designation Orinia torpida by Duchassaing &#38; Michelotti in 1860.  Despite [...]]]></description>

For the third dive we had a definitive lead on where we&#8217;d find the Corynactis viridis.  My friend Laurent Foure is the curator of the public aquarium in Cap d&#8217;Agde; about 2.5 hours westward along the coast of the  Mediterranean.
