Description

I was thoroughly convinced this was a sea cucumber, until I was completely failing to find anything like it in Light's, decided to flip through the worms, and saw it under the Sipunculans. I mean, spiny skin! Feeding tentacles! Still so much to learn.

Does anyone know if these things are known to brood? If you look you'll see a smaller one with yellow tentacles to the lower left of the big one.
