Elegant Anemone
Cylista elegans
Elegant anemones live anchored to firm seafloor surfaces in shallow coastal waters. Their tentacles seize zooplankton, small crustaceans, and other animals that drift within reach. Specialized stinging cells immobilize prey and discourage predators, while the body can retract its tentacles for protection.
