From Dive 288 at Tent Reef (Saba)

There are the antennae of a Snapping Shrimp poking out of this corkscrew anemonie. When they snap, if I recall correctly, they shoot a jet of water at high speed. Supposedly getting hit by it at close range stings. So I never did get one out far enough to get a photograph of one.
