  • Weak support. Amazing anemone, only thing I've got me holding back from a proper support, is that Venus flytrap sea anemone is an uberstub, and it's only other use is in a gallery. Aaadddaaammm (talk) 14:35, 6 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

  • Weak Oppose - It's an attractive shot, to be sure, but it seems like we're not getting the best viewing angle. --Dante Alighieri | Talk 17:56, 11 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Hum... What is the best viewing angle for you? In this picture, you can see the Venus flytrap sea anemone's specificity : her "stem".--Citron (talk) 20:07, 11 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Well, I envisioned a shot similar to the lead photo for Venus flytrap, if the "stem" part of this anemone is especially important that should be mentioned in the (admittedly very small stub) article. I'll change my vote to weak oppose though... not that it's liable to matter much. ;) --Dante Alighieri | Talk 06:14, 13 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
