I am an Anemone,

A tentacled beast at the bottom of the sea.

It is a beautiful place with a lot of space,

And it used to get quite lonely.

One day a clownfish and some Zooxanthelae

floated by, nestled in and came to live with me.

We are now a happy, multi-species family.

The Anemone, the Clownfish and the Zooxanthellae are a symbiotic threesome found all over the reefs of Palawan.

The Mermaid Islands Corp is coming out with a fun fact filled Alphabet book of the sea creatures we have found in Palawan. Bright watercolors and ocean critter stories promise to be entertaining to mermaids and kids alike. Enjoy these teasers and stay tuned for more updates on how to reserve your book.

Banan = Tagalog/Tagbanua name for Anemone
