Camouflaged Orange Oakleaf Butterfly

The Robust Ghost Pipefish is able to perfectly mimic a dead piece of marine eelgrass. It uses this camouflage to hunt small crustaceans.

I think this is the wrong video, that’s just some seaweed and bits of dead leaf.

Weedy scorpionfish (Rhinopias frondosa)

Rhinopias frondosa is a benthic marine fish which belongs to the family Scorpaenidae or also known as the Scorpionfishes family.The weedy scorpionfish has a highly compressed body, can reach a maximum
length of 23 cm, and can vary considerably in color as well as
appendages depending on its environment. Specimens found in rocky, algae rich waters are covered in weed-like appendages, whereas specimens found in deeper soft-bottomed waters with soft corals and sponges have fewer appendages. Color can range vastly from dark red and purple to yellow and lavender.The weedy scorpionfish lives in the Indian Ocean and Western Pacific Ocean, from Japan to Australia and from South Africa to the Caroline Islands. They are found in depths ranging from 13 to 90 meters.Like most Scorpaenidae, weedy scorpionfish are mostly nocturnal ambush hunters, using their camouflage to prey on unsuspecting fish and invertebrates. They rarely swim, but rather move along the bottom propelling themselves with their fins.

WOW! This alga does a great impression of a seahorse, it even has eyes and fins and… oh whoa. If you ever thought the seaweed was talking back, perhaps a ribboned pipehorse was to blame.
