Underwater Camouflaged Gems: Halimeda Crabs
Halimeda crabs, known scientifically as Huenia heraldica, are small, camouflaged creatures found in tropical waters around coral reefs. They mimic the Halimeda algae, which helps them avoid predators and ambush prey. Their diet includes algae and small invertebrates, and these crabs play an important role in maintaining healthy coral reef ecosystems by controlling algae growth.
