Sciartober Day 10: A sea cucumber for the prompt: underappreciated. As mostly detritivores, these squishy bodied Echinoderms eat most of the decaying organic matter on the sea floor and help create a fine grain sand. This particular sea cucumber is called a pineapple sea cucumber. I chose it for the aesthetics even if did increase render time. Also bad planning puts one side too close to the edge of the paper.
