Closeup Poisonous "Flower" Urchin Outwardly, this appears to be one of the many anemone variations. However on closer inspection, you'll see the nearly transparent spines. Another giveaway is that anemones don't cover themselves with rocks. Spherical, about 3 inches in diameter. This species is extremely venemous and has been known to cause cardiac arrest. We had no idea what this was until we looked it up at home. This is why they tell you "DON'T TOUCH ANYTHING!" when you are diving.
