Sea anemones prey on fish and marine invertebrates they can subdue with their stinging tentacles. Most of the sea anemones that live in relatively shallow or brightly lit waters also maintain and cultivate symbiotic zooxanthellae algae in their tissues, and derive almost all their nutritional and oxygen requirements from their symbiotes.

Sea anemones do not sleep in the way humans do. They do not have a central nervous system or a brain, so they do not undergo a sleep cycle. However, they can exhibit periods of decreased activity or a resting state.

Like all animals, seashells and sea anemones are aerobic, which means they require oxygen to survive. Therefor, they do breath underwater. They simply absorb oxygen dissolved in the water through their skin.

Not in the terms that humans do. However when conditions are not favorable for them, they withdraw their tentacles and look different.
