Dear Bill
Thanks for your response on the P. briareum.  Unfortunately at the time we were finding large numbers of them my housing was not in operation.  When it eventually was, the numbers had dropped quite dramatically so the only shots I have are of pairs.  I have attached two shots of these. 
Sizes were approximately 12-20 mm at depths of between 25-37 ft where the Pachyclavularia violacea was growing on vertical walls of a lone pinnacle set away from the main reef of Pulau Hoga, one of the smaller islands of the Tukang Besi group.  Sadly we did not find any eggs but will be looking out for them in future as usual.

All the best
Lindsay Warren
