Oulactis muscosa
Camouflaged anemones like Oulactis muscosa, shown here, have sticky surfaces that catch gravel and fragments of shell and seaweed. Most of their body is embedded in crevices or sand, and when the tentacles are withdrawn the entire animal is hidden.

Thanks Blogie.. I ticked the wrong misson. :)
Wonderful sea anemone! Haven't seen this one yet.
(Pls note, though, sea anemones aren't mollusks.)
