The “Sun Coral” or “Tubastraea” lives in the waters around Boulder Island. They do not rely on sunlight for energy, instead, they capture plankton and other small particles from the water using their tentacles. #Tubastraea #SunCoral #MarineLife #BoulderIsand

With @LCandisani and @LeoFrancini at Buzios island (São Paulo, #Brazil) to record and sample the #invasive #suncoral #tubastraea for an R&D project. It is abundant, but not alone. Besides fish schools and sargasso banks, #biodiversity per m2 was very high. Tune in for more

#HKBU's biologists have discovered three new species of hard #coral at Sung Kong and Waglan Island in the eastern waters of Hong Kong. The species all belong to the genus #Tubastraea #筒星珊瑚屬 which have never been identified anywhere else in the world. https://t.co/gjWyTXDNZZ

These #tubastraea are aptly known as #suncoral! These guys are azooxanthellate - which means they do not need sunlight and usually occur in caves or other shaded areas. Not sure what species this is - #teaminvert? #cupcoral #cnidaria #inverts #marinecritters #palau

Na faculdade, pesquiso sobre os corais do gênero #Tubastraea, mais conhecidos como #coralsol. Desenvolvo um projeto de iniciação científica, junto com o #icmbioalcatrazes e #cebimarusp.

Does the #suncoral #Tubastraea uses #chemical warfare against Brazilian #corals? Stay tuned as we figure it out together!👇🤓

Day79: #Tubastraea runs on plankton power: it feeds nightly on zooplankton as it lacks symbiotic algae to harvest sunlight. This also means it can grow on deeper walls and shipwrecks. This chunky coral also produces Tubastrine an antiviral! Let's protect them! #100days100species
