Arabian Knights

An Arabian Butterfly and the well known adult coloration of an Emperor Angel (detailed fish) stand by as the knights guarding the reef at night in the Red Sea. They guard the precious Montipora shelves, the green matt Zoanthids, the Porites, and a blue soft coral. Shelves of Coralline Algae take over the undersides of the reef, while red macro algae along with green Sargassum algae shift in the water's current.
