Pink Anemone
By Choh Wah Ye

The Perhentian Island water here has seen some risen temperature lately. Most of my dives are recording water temperature of 31 deg C (88 deg F), from the normal 30 deg C. Some of the anemones are displaying unusual colours maybe caused by this slight temperature rise. This normally brown/orange anemone is turning pink. From my dives I saw quite a lot of anemones in white colour as well. There were also quite some coral bleaching reminiscing the effects of El Nino a few years back.
