Ecology

It mimics the surrounding seaweed to live. During the day, it hides in seaweed and becomes active at night.

Habitat

Hayakawa beach at night

Taken during a night dive. It also had two pieces of seaweed on it. It looked quite conspicuous when I saw it in a place where there was no seaweed around.
