Dear Bill,
Concerning your question [#12498]:
I've checked all my photos of Dondice occidentalis and I can't find a better view of these polyps. When I photographed this animal I believed they were an hydroid. Sorry, but I can't tell you more about it.

Cordially,
Marina.

Thanks Marina,
I suspect it is a hydroid but can't clearly make out a stalk. Whatever it is, it is obviously eating one!
Cheers
Bill Rudman
