A soft coral with polyps extended next to another with polyps retracted, clinging to the underside of a ledge on the Western flank of Axial Caldera. Credit: NSF-OOI/UW/CSSF, Dive R2245, V22

A pink anemone grows on a discarded tarp or bag at Southern Hydrate Ridge. Solid attachment points can be hard to find in the deep sea, so human-made objects (instruments, cables, or even trash) often attract encrusting animals. Credit: NSF-OOI/UW/CSSF, Dive R2221, V22
