Green Clove Polyp - Large
Clove polyps are very similiar in appearance to Anthelia corals. A distinguishing feature is the base of the polyp; Anthelia polyps can only deflate, whereas Clavularia can retract its polyps completely. Clove polyps receive most of their nutrients through photosynthesis, but will benefit from supplemental planktonic food.
