Actiniaria(52485)

Image of the creature

The actinarians at Gray's Reef may be epi- or infaunal. The infaunal forms typically keep their tentacles positioned above the sand in order to capture prey, while the remainder of their body is beneath the surface. Infaunal anemones are also capable of burrowing, found up to 15 cm beneath the seafloor.
