Description
English: Tube building worms, such as the sandcastle worm (Phragmatopoma californica) are a very specialized kind of marine animal, forming a honey-combed network of cemented sand castings to give it protection from predation. Its anemone-like plumes can be seen when the tide is in, which is the worm extended and feeding. At the center of this picture, notice the retracted solitary anemone.
