Fire worm underwater Sea life Scuba diver point of view

Amphinomidae, also known as the bristle worms or sea mice, are a family of marine polychaetes, many species of which bear chaetae mineralized with carbonate. The best-known amphinomids are the fireworms, which can cause great pain if their toxin-coated chaetae are touched or trodden on. Their relationship to other polychaete groups is somewhat poorly resolved.

$The Red Fanworm Protula bispiralis (ex. Protula magnifica) occurs in the tropical Indo-West Pacific from Westcoast Africa tu Australia. The spieces has with 38 whorls of spirally arranged branchial radioles, a tube diameter of up to 2cm and grows up to 30 cm. There are several common names like Red Hard Tube Coco Worm, Mopworm or Feather Duster. The species uses the feeding crowns to catch microplankton.\nLembeh Strait, Indonesia \n1°27'38.1666 N 125°13'34.2828 E at 8m depth$

$Godeffroys Worm Cucumber Euapta godeffroyi occurs in the subtropical and tropical Indo-Pacific from South Africa to Hawaii in a depth range from 0-77m, max. length 40cm. \nThe spicules (microscopic calcareous structures that project through the skin) are a mixture of anchors and perforated plates with large holes. \n\nThe nocturnal species is a deposit feeder spending the day hidden among the rubble and corals. It emerges at night, crawling along using its anchor spicules for adhesion, and extending its tentacles onto the sediment (like this specimen) which sticks to them; food particles are passed to the mouth where they are scraped off. The sea cucumber selects the more nutritious particles it finds and consumes several times its bodyweight each day.\n\nTriton Bay, West Papua Province, Indonesia\n3°54'2.5416 S 134°6'23.8608 E at 9m depth by night$

A beautiful but dangerous bristle fireworm crawls on a patch of purple sponge feeding. This is a very venomous worm and they use it to defend themselves.

Clusters of squid eggs are attached to an underwater structure, forming elongated white egg capsules beneath the surface. This scene illustrates the reproductive behavior of squid, which lay their eggs on stable substrates in coastal waters. The image is ideal for themes related to marine biology, underwater ecology, cephalopod reproduction, and ocean life.

$Indian Feather Duster Worm Sabellastarte spectabilis occurs in the tropical Indo-Pacific Ocean from the Arabian Sea to Hawaii in intertidal and subtidal reefs in a depth range from 3-30m. It is quite a large species, with a tube up to 30cm and a single crown of about 10cm in diameter, feeding by filtering plankton and organic particles from the water column. \nAs a defence mechanism, these creatures are able to quickly retreat into their tubes, when disturbed by potential predators. It may come as a surprise, but Sabellastarte has eyes! \nCrowns of this species often have a banded pattern in a variety of colors including browns, red, white and yellow. Yellow like this specimen is the rarest color for this species. \nTengah Island, Indonesia, 5°8'44.496 S 132°0'46.254 E at 8m depth by night$
