Side by side

Here's one of the new pink-tipped anemones, feeding and growing, standing tall.

Anthopleura elegantissima

And, right next to it, one of the Leafy Hornmouth snails:

Ceratostoma foliatum, with the Warty tunicate behind it.

I love the contrasting textures, the rough, craggy shell of the snail, and the creamy greens, pinks, reds, and yellows of the soft tissues.

I'm having to moderate all comments because Blogger seems to have a problem notifying me. Sorry about that. I will review them several times daily, though, until this issue is fixed.

Also, I have word verification on, because I found out that not only do I get spam without it, but it gets passed on to anyone commenting in that thread. Not cool!
