They're about the same soft but fishes just like anatomies better.
Thanks,

wow! great question.
Off top of my head in simple non scientific terms -
corals are single cells living together
Anemone's are a single species
Anemone's are more like jelly fish, then a normal fish.
The can and will move, coral does not move.
Both have a symbiotic relationship with zooxanthellae, zoochlorellae or both
both can sting
both eat about the same way and export waste about the same way. (in and out through their mouth)
