Giant Caribbean sea anemone
The giant Caribbean sea anemone (Condylactis gigantea) is a tropical species of sea anemone that is found in coral reefs, shallow ocean waters, in shore areas in the Caribbean Sea and western Atlantic Ocean. It grows to approximately 15 cm (6 in) high and 30 cm (12 in) wide, making the pedal disc diameter approximately 40 cm (16 in). Although it is primarily a sessile animal, it is quite a mobile species compared to other anemones, and capable of using its pedal disc to crawl slowly.Photo: Nick Hobgood

Queries

[edit]
  • "... which may explain why the species is so common in Bermuda. " Nothing in the text would explain this connection with Bermuda.
  • "Sea anemones in general can be found anywhere from the intertidal zone all the way to a depth of 30,000 feet." This should be prefaced by a statement of the deepest water in which C. gigantea itself is found.
  • "...mating season is reported to be in late May." "Reported" needs a citation: by whom? where?
  • "lecithotrophic" needs an explanatory phrase.
  • "... causing extreme pain and paralysis". The expectationm would be that these are effects on a human being. Yes?--Wetman (talk) 19:32, 12 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
