Bubble-tip anemone (Entacmaea quadricolor) is a species of sea anemone in the family Actiniidae.[2] Like several anemone species, E. quadricolor can support several anemonefish species, and displays two growth types based on where they live in the water column, one of which gives it the common name, due to the bulbous tips on its tentacles.

The bubble tip anemone (Entacmaea quadricolor) is a species of sea anemone in the family Actiniidae. It is found in the tropical Indo-Pacific region, from the Red Sea to Japan and Australia. Bubble tip anemones are typically found in shallow water, on reefs and in lagoons. They can grow to be up to 30 centimeters (12 inches) in diameter. Bubble tip anemones are known for their colorful tentacles, which can be green, orange, red, or yellow. The tentacles are covered in stinging cells called nematocysts, which the anemone uses to capture prey. Bubble tip anemones are also known for their symbiotic relationship with anemonefish. Anemonefish are immune to the anemone's sting, and they provide the anemone with protection from predators. In return, the anemone provides the anemonefish with a safe place to live and food.

Coral reefs are the one of earths most complex ecosystems, containing over 800 species of corals and one million animal and plant species. Here we see a shallow coral reef consisting of Bubble Tip Coral (Entacmaea quadricolor). This coral although on the whole healthy, is showing signs of distress. 75% of the worlds coral reefs are now classed as 'Threatened,' with 60% of most reefs having local damage from anchors, overfishing, coral bleaching (due to climate change), disease and pollution.
