Sea pen polyps can live for several years, with some species exhibiting a lifespan of up to 10 years or more. However, their lifespan can vary depending on environmental conditions and predation. As colonial organisms, their longevity is often tied to the health of the colony rather than individual polyps.
The scientific name for a sea pen is Ptilosarcus gurneyi
A sea pen is an animal, specifically a type of soft coral that belongs to the order Pennatulacea. It is found in marine habitats and has a structure resembling a feather quill or a pen, hence its name. Sea pens are filter feeders that capture food particles from the water using their specialized polyps.
The class of cnidarians that typically only live as polyps is the Anthozoa. This class includes sea anemones and corals, which exist primarily as polyps and do not have a medusa stage in their life cycle.
