Discovering new creatures is always what divers are looking for deep at the bottom of the sea. In this diving safari professional scuba diver Abdullah Ozdemir and his team have recorded amazing scenes from red sea coral reefs.

Coral reefs are home of many species and they are crucial for sea life. But it's amazing how one talented creature mimics the shape and texture of corals to hide and wait for its prey or protect itself from predators.

You can see how quickly it can change color and shape but also the texture, which seems like magic, because the octopus family has no skeleton and no hard bones. It's unclear that how they can manage to change the texture of their skin to look like exactly as a coral!
