bryozoan
A bryozoan is a small aquatic invertebrate animal that lives in colonies. These colonies often resemble moss, hence their other names: "moss animals" or "sea mats." Bryozoans are found in various marine and freshwater environments, and they filter feed, removing particles from the water using a lophophore, a "crown" of tentacles, typically covered in cilia that they use to filter food particles out of the water.
