Image ID: 33486 Species: Strawberry anemone, Corynactis californica Location: San Diego, California, USA	Polyp of a strawberry anemone (club-tipped anemone, more correctly a corallimorph). Image ID: 01039 Species: Strawberry anemone, Corynactis californica Location: San Miguel Island, California, USA	California Golden gorgonian polyps. The golden gorgonian is a colonial organism composed of thousands of tiny polyps. Each polyp secretes calcium which accumulates to form the structure of the colony. The fan-shaped gorgonian is oriented perpendicular to prevailing ocean currents to better enable to filter-feeding polyps to capture passing plankton and detritus passing by.
