Description
These "rocks" are actually low mounding structures that form living reefs along Florida�s coast and are made by numerous tiny marine bristle worms of the family Sabellariidae. Each worm settles onto a hard, durable surface and begins to construct a protective tube out of the surrounding sand. The Sabellariid worms attach their tubes to their neighbors� tubes, forming large colonies which grow into massive mounding reefs. These reefs are sometimes exposed at low tide, creating tide pools and providing habitat for many marine organisms.
