It's not Sasquatch my man lol. But all ribbing aside just a few quick tips. It's best to kill the flow. White light sans filter is more helpful that blue sans filter... the cheap clip-on filters with a mild lens and taken under actinic tends to provide the most useful details for an ID. Naturally there's apps for your phone where you can play with the white balance and such but a simple clip-on gets the job done. Finally, move the camera as close to the coral as possible rather than zooming in... that should get you 90% if the way there.
