What is the relationship between sea anemone and hermit crab?
Its symbiotic though mostly for the crabs benefit - most anemones are sessile - that is fixed in place and get food from whatever comes by.

Anemones have stinging tentacles to protect themselves and with these crabs can protect themselves against predators, in particular Octopuses which would otherwise have the crab for a snack - its not just a one way relationship though - as the anemone is always around when crabs eat, they benefit from the messy eating habits, foods stuff float by and the anemone can eat them.
