They live in the deepest sea among the three kinds of sea
squirts. They live in the pebble or reef in the water. They
live on planktons, diatoms, seaweeds. They dislike light, so
that live in the shadow. They come out at night. They are

color is dark purple. When they grow that their diameter is
over 30cm, the gonads become red.
