Yeah it does not give an exact credit, or research reference for it, it was in the museum at Drakes beach(Great tide pools all long that area north of SF Bay) We were out checking out the tide pools, realized I've never been in the museum, and figured I would check it out. They had a bunch of information on anemones, and a microscopic slide of a diatom, and a giant cold water anemone tank, that they had temporarily taken down because of chiller problems(apparently the anemones they had in it dated back at least 10yrs) But in the secetion about anemones they had these little fact sheets. How do Anemones eat? What do they eat? How long do they live? How can you --- an Anemone? All of which I knew the answer to except for How long do anemones live....when I saw 30 yrs...well I just don't believe it, I'm going to shoot them an e-mailand request where they get that number.
