Thecreatures that inhabit the world’s oceans run the full spectrumof colors—often in intricate patterns, advanced camouflage, andvarying degrees of transparency.
Here, a white sea anemone keepscompany with a sea star in the waters off British Columbia. There aremore than a thousand sea anemone species. The invertebrate takes itsname from the equally flashy terrestrial anemone flower.
Blue Tang

Adultblue tangs swim close to the ocean floor near Mexico. A species ofsurgeonfish, the blue tang is abundant in the waters of the Caribbean,often schooling around coral reefs. As they mature, the tangs' colorprogresses from bright yellow to a deep bluish-gray or purple.
Clownfish and Anemone

Aclownfish is at home between the stinging tentacles of an anemone,which protects the boldly colored reef dweller and its eggs fromintruders. Bound in an alliance of mutual benefit, clownfish spendtheir entire lives with their host anemones, rarely straying more thana few yards from them.
Mantis Shrimp

Thisotherworldly creature, a mantis shrimp, was photographed in the watersof Indonesia's Lembeh Strait. The shrimp feeds by smashing open itsprey with a force that can break a pane of glass, and its dartingbulbous eyes are thought to be the most complex in nature.
