Opheodesoma Spectabilis

With their flexible, wormlike bodies and mouth surrounded by tentacles Opheodesoma spectabilis varies in color. From a shade of gray when above water, to a rich chocolate brown or "bloodsucker" red when below water.

Opheodesoma spectabilis is located in subtropical and tropical areas such as New Caledonia, Hawaii, the Indo-Pacific, East Africa, and Guam. Generally found at the bottom of the ocean floor within the sand, crumble, shells, and brown algae called Sargassum.

These conspicuous creatures are bottom feeders, a.k.a. reef janitors. Their diets mainly consist of dead plant and animal particles. This animal eats by accumulating the particles with its tentacles and then depositing said particles into its mouth.
