Eziokwu
When it grows near a sea fan, it grows special 'attack' branches that wrap around and smother the fan.1
It is not a true coral. It belongs to the class Hydrozoa and is more closely related to jellyfish than to stony corals.1
Small fish and shrimp shelter among its branches and seem unaffected by its venom.1
It is one of the first corals to bleach in warm water, but it recovers from damage faster than most other corals.1
About 75% of its energy comes from microscopic algae living in its tissues.1
