True story: I have four brains, and three of my brains are immortal. 😜
Also true story: Sometimes, people just give me their sick and infected brains so I can try to save them.
Also true: if you're nice to me, and I trust you, I'll let you touch my brain. 😂
This closeup is a Trachyphyllia brain coral I've had and farmed for two decades now.

The Ricordea Mushroom Coral (aka Mushroom Anemone), is often called a False Coral as it has no remnants of a hard calcium skeleton as other true soft corals do.
They belong to the order Corallimoprharians, which contain a further 45 other mushroom species within 11 genera.
Unlike other corals, Corallimoprharians are able to move and relocate themselves in response to changing environmental conditions.

The infamous gender-bending Amphiprion Ocellaris aka Clownfish
All Ocellaris are born as juveniles and will metamorphosis into male or female, depending on social environmental factors. The most dominate becomes female, and males can transform to females at later dates (usually to fill a void). A Harem contains one female, one breeding male and the reminder males/juvi's lay in waiting.
