No, not a bubble-tip anemone.

Just need the phylum and common name, but that makes for a great example, thanks Daz. Unfortunately, you're now out for this round.

clue: It's not a fish, crustacean, mollusk, coral, plant, or algae.

Not a bad one either. I'm curious to see what else doesn't fall into any of those phylums.

Hmmm... I fear this thread has died. And so close to a prize winner.

If someone wants they can start a new riddle, otherwise I'm clinging to this one.

Nope.

Just a reminder, for a correct answer to get points, it has to include a photo.
