OK - my first post so please be gentle.....
I find it hard to plan wildlife shots as I don't know exactly what I'm going to see (isn't that why we go diving?). So you have to rely on a little luck. I believe you can however improve your luck!
Anemones tend to be out feeding when there is some tide running so if you want your plumose plump, dive a little before slack water.
Some fish are territorial - male cuckoo wrasse probably the best example in the UK. Once you find one, stay where you are, it will come back and investigate you and your ports. While you're waiting decide what you want, if anything, in the foreground / background and get yourself in position ready.
Seals often get out of the water on a falling tide - I think to secure their spot on a convenient rock for an afternoon nap. They seem more willing to come in and play in the 2 or 3 hours before high tide.
Well that's my twopenny worth!
