Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery...

The Mimic Octopus (Thaumoctopus mimicus) is known to mimic several different animals, including lionfish, flatfish, sea snakes and stinging anemones. They use their mimicry to confuse predators as well as to sneak up to prey.

It has its webbing out, so it looks like a blanket of with a bunch of wavy bumps. This makes it hard to tell which bumps are its head and mantle and not its arms. It has a pattern of dark and light brown stripes, making it even harder to tell which part is what. The bottom of its arms have white line at the bottom. The background is the sea floor stretching out into the distance as far as visibility will allow, with a lot of conches on the sea floor.
