Its delicate structure and vibrant colors make it an enchanting sight to behold. Moving towards the top center, we encounter tuft coral (Lophophelia prolifera), which stands out with its intricate branching pattern that resembles a delicate lacework. In the center of this composition lies endive coral (Euphyllia pavonia), named after its resemblance to endive lettuce leaves.
