Tides and the affect they have on Anemones

Anemones located in tides are built differently in many ways. As you can see below in the first photo this Anemone will close up when various things fall into it or next to it. Compared to the second photo, Anemones deep under have a softer outside shell. Anemones like the Giant Green have a rougher outside shell to protect them from objects or organisms from harming it. Also deep water Anemones and tide pool Anemones have different dietary necessities and that has a lot to do with the genetic built of each specie of Anemones.
