Description

Shrimp with Mushrooms but not to eat! "...this serving is meant solely to be consumed with the eyes of the viewers!" These cute little shrimp (fire shrimp?) are on what looks to me like fluorescent Hawaiian mushroom corals, one of which may be actinodiscus. The others may be Corallimorphs, maybe a false coral or anemone. I need expert input!
This beautiful underwater scene was found in the Tampa, Florida aquarium. Corals and shrimp are marine animals.
Corals are sessile, permanently attached to the ocean floor. Corals have tiny, tentacle-like arms to capture food from the water and sweep it into their mouths.
Most structures that we call "coral" consist of hundreds to thousands of tiny coral creatures called polyps.
