Boloceroididae, commonly known as curlycue anemones, are a family of sea anemones characterized by their long, spiraled tentacles. They are found in various marine environments, often attached to rocky substrates or nestled in coral reefs. These anemones are known for their striking appearance and can add a dynamic element to a reef aquarium. They host a variety of symbiotic relationships, notably with clownfish, which can enhance their appeal in a captive setting.
