Sorry Chicquita..It's not coming to me. :) But the host was on Alaskan coast and as he walked he showed many organisms like star fish and these.

Harsha Singh .. think hard!!!!! :) .... Do you know the name of the program so I can google it? Please .... :)

I saw them on a show on Discovery or NGC. They keep their mouths open for food to come inside and when the host touched them they closed themselves. He told the name. My bad...I forgot.

Karen / Ava, aulactinia species anemone perhaps?

It's very similar to these two aggregating anemones but a different species I think: http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/7143979 http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/7896551
