Description
The snakelocks anemone (Anemonia sulcata) is a sea anemone found in the eastern Atlantic Ocean to the Mediterranean Sea.
The tentacles of anemones in deep or murky water can be a grey colour, but are otherwise usually a deep green colour with purple tips due to
the presence of symbiotic algae within the tentacles that use sunlight as an energy source. As a result, the anemones prefer brightly lit shallow
waters. On average the snakelock anemone is 8 cm wide.
Unlike other cnidarians, anemones (and other Anthozoa) entirely lack the free-swimming medusa stage of the life cycle; the polyp produces eggs
and sperm, and the fertilized egg develops into a planula that develops directly into another polyp.
Several species of small animals regularly live in a symbiotic or commensal relationship with the snakelocks anemone, gaining protection from
predators by residing among the venomous tentacles. These include the Bucchich's (or anemone) goby (Gobius bucchichi), the shrimp
Periclimenes aegylios and the Leach's spider crab (Inachus phalangium).

Description
Calliactis parasitica is a species of sea anemone associated with hermit crabs. It lives in the eastern Atlantic Ocean and Mediterranean Sea at
depths between the intertidal zone and 60 m (200 ft). It is up to 10 cm × 8 cm (3.9 in × 3.1 in) in size, with up to 700 tentacles, and is very
variable in colour. The relationship between C. parasitica and the hermit crab is mutualistic: the sea anemone protects the hermit crab with its
stings, and benefits from the food thrown up by the hermit crab's movements.
Calliactis parasitica is up to 100 millimetres (3.9 in) tall, and 80 mm (3.1 in) wide, with the base of the column being slightly wider. The surface of
the column is rough and leathery with a grainy appearance, but has no tubercles and is not divided into sections. It is variable in colouring, but is
usually cream or buff in colour, with blotches and streaks of reddish or greyish brown, which tend to form vertical stripes.
The basal disc is concave, and able to stick firmly to the substrate.Above this lies the limbus (the junction between the basal disc and the
column), and just above that are the relatively prominent cinclides (specialised pores), each on a small mound. These readily emit threadlike
acontia (stings) when the animal is disturbed.[3] At the top of the column are up to 700 slender tentacles of moderate length. They are
translucent, and yellowish to orange in colour, with longitudinal lines of reddish brown.
Calliactis parasitica is found in the north-eastern Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea. Its Atlantic range extends from south-western
Europe as far north as the west coasts of Wales and Ireland, and the English Channel.
