As the name suggests this beautiful and rare species lives in soft corals and can be found at several dive sites in the vicinity of our resort. The Soft Coral Pipefish (Siokunichthys breviceps) is a small fish, about 4 to 5 cm long and very slim. Together with their active behavior, capturing a film or photo of them can be a good challenge for underwater macro photographers and videographers.
