Grey Bonnet

Found buried in the sand, during the day close to dead coral areas, over exposed reef flats, emerging at night to feed, over lagoons, coral and rocky reefs.
They feed nocturnally on sea urchins.

Cassidae can grow very large and their shells resemble Roman Helmets. These are sand dwellers mainly hunting sea urchins such as sand dollars, using chemicals to penetrate through the hard case via the anus or by drilling a hole.
