 | | The invertebrates are a large and diverse group of animals that don't have backbones. |
 | | Pertaining to aquariums, they include animals like crustaceans (shrimp, crabs, lobsters, etc.), molluscs (snails, slugs, nudibranchs, etc.), echinoderms (sea urchins, sea cucumbers), cephalopods (octopi, squids, etc.), cnidarians (corals, anemones, jellyfish), sponges and true worms. |
 | | They live by a wide range of lifestyles; some are sessile (anchored to the bottom) and live by photosynthesis or filter-feeding, while others are relatively active and always searching for food. |
