Sea grasses, also known as seaweed or a selection of marine benthic algae, play a vital role in the underwater ecosystem. These fascinating plants provide shelter and food for various marine creatures while contributing to oxygen production and carbon sequestration. In the Lembeh Straits of Sulawesi, Indonesia, a Ramose Sea-hare finds solace on the soft blades of seagrass during the tranquil night. This unique species showcases its vibrant colors against the backdrop of these underwater meadows. On the shores of MacKerricher State Park in North California, USA, Eelgrass thrives along the seashore. Its long green strands sway with each gentle wave, creating an enchanting sight that attracts both humans and marine life alike. Traveling across continents to Sardinia, Italy in April reveals Neptune Grass washed up on the beach.

Back in Lembeh Straits once again, another Ramose Sea-hare takes respite amidst lush seagrass beds. Its delicate body rests upon this natural carpet as it blends seamlessly into its surroundings – a true testament to nature's camouflage mastery. Delving deeper into these underwater gardens brings us face-to-face with a Double-ended Pipefish in Lembeh Straits. With its intricate head close-up among swaying seagrass blades, this creature exemplifies how sea grasses provide not only sanctuary but also hunting grounds for many unique species.
