Anemone kills, eats fish

*********************************
There is now a CONTENT FREEZE for Mercury while we switch to a new platform. It began on Friday, March 10 at 6pm and will end on Wednesday, March 15 at noon. No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu

An anemone has stung and killed a fish and is eating it. This is what anemones usually do, but they make a glowing exception for clownfish, who live happily among their venomous tentacles.  Credit: NOAA Okeanos Explorer Program, Gulf of Mexico 2012 Expedition
