Elephant ear anemone (Amplexidiscus fenestrafer), Nosy Kalakajoro, Madagascar. The common name is a minomer since this is actually a coral species that is often forming small colony in 5–25 metres (16–82 ft) depth on the top reef in tropical waters Indo-West Pacific area. The visible part of its body corresponds to its oral region and forms a flexible disc, when it is deployed, endowed with cone-shaped tentacles. Its diameter can reach 40 centimetres (16 in) and its diet is highly varied and goes from the production of its zooxanthellae to numerous animals which find themselves trapped by the oral disk as benthic invertebrates, crustaceans, worms, echinoderms and even fishes.
