Looking like a fully bloom rose on rock surface are not any plant or corals, but the larvae of nudibranch. If you look closely at the image on the left, tiny dots of larvae actually form the whole composition.

Nudibranch has no male or female as they will adjust when two come together for mating. The 'mating' organ is located on the right side just below the outer trims. Image number 7 shows obviously the location.

All images are captured using Canon cameras over the years of my diving. I welcome divers to add images here.
