The Life of Penguin Five

Green

As our challenge was "green" today, I decided to blip our green hairy mushroom coral! Two aquarium blips in a row! :)

I still find it amazing, even though we have had this coral for a while now, that these are actually animals! They have symbiotic algae within their body to provide some of its nutritional requirements, but they also eats plankton and some larger organisms. When you drop food on them they will close to eat the food and they only re-open when all the food is gone!
