About this work
Corkscrew tentacle sea anemone (Radianthus doreensis), Anilao, Philippines. It's found in Japan, and south to the waters of New Guinea and northern Australia. This species is commonly found at depths of 5 metres (16 ft) or less in muddy bottoms, and is commonly seen without fish present. This species remains at the surface of the sediment, with the column buried and can retract entirely into the sediment.
