Actinothoe qingdaoensis [Actinothoe qingdaoensis]
Description
In the right habitats, divers may find this anemone anchored close to the bottom, blending in with local rocks or sediment. Its tentacles can form a soft, crown-like display when it’s feeding or responding to light and flow. With a careful approach, you can often watch it open and close slightly as conditions change.
