This week at the Touch Tank: Frilled Anemones


Come visit the anemones in the Portsmouth Touch Tank this week! Frilled anemones use their tentacles to feed on small zooplankton in the water.

Join us at the Isles of Shoals Steamship Company Dock in this great summer weather to gently touch and hold some of our plants and animals in the touch tank. Along with this week's featured creature the anemone, we also have a winter flounder, a sculpin, and many crabs, hermit crabs, and sea stars.
