This one has decided to hang on to some brown algae for a while

Swimming anemones look like this during the day. At night their tentacles come out to filter the seawater and feed.

This species is closed up during the day. At night it opens out to feed with hundreds of tentacles. It is unusual in that, whilst often attached, it can let go of the bottom and drift around in the current until it finds more food

This anemone was drifting around, attached to the kelp that it feeds on as the kelp had broken off

A nice composition of swimming anemone, currently closed up, hydroids, encrusting algae, sponges and brown algae
