Euplectella aspergillum
The Venus Flower basket is a type of deep-sea hexactinellid sponge. These sponges have symbiotic relationships with small shrimp who live inside the sponge, which eventually grow too large to leave it. When they are still tiny, the shrimp's offspring leaves the sponge to find other Venus Flower Baskets.
