 *  A colony of Bluebell Tunicates, probably (Clavelina picta). The  brownish, branching organisms are Hydroids (Thyroscyphus  ramosus).  The entire little mini-habitat is located on a Red Finger Sponge (Haliclona rubens).  We found the Honduran waters especially good for  the finding of tunicates (1), (2).
