Diving on Sailrock and Koh Ma

I have shot a photo of a kind of softcoral, but does anybody know what the name of this kind is showing here below?
This shot was actually taken at Koh Ma island north of Koh Phangyang.
Also are there some places with saddleback clownfish. They are very grumpy if you come close to them, but it is more bluff then a real defensive attack.
This was a strange dive, where i shot the photo shown here above. They are called Chevron Baracuda, but the visability where i shot it, was 20 meters. But on the other side of the island visability was going down to only 1 meter. And as you can see here, there are a lot of fish to find here. And that is what Sailrock makes famous. Probably the best divesite in the Gulf of Thailand.


This video i shot from the 'Seafarher' boat owned by Planet Scuba. This baby whaleshark stayed with us for 5 hours, and he was playing with the divers and snorklers like a dolphin.
