Burrowing Anemone, Cerianthius lloydii, Fleshwick, Isle of Man
The burrowing anemone belongs to a different sub-group from the true anemones and rather than attaching itself to a firm surface lives in a soft tube. The anemone's tentacles are usually all that is visible. They are adapted for life on soft seafloors.
