that purple tip nem! ive been watching a nem in my lfs thats a so called "african white anemone" which i never fully bought into since white usually means bleached. does anyone know about this? its the same exact looking one that ive been watching, and otherwise normal and healthy behavior

The purple tip ? Is a sebae. Theyre easy to care for but normal osc clowns dont usually host with them they will host other species hes been on tank some time now i feed it krill it was cheap. (25) bucks. Hes growing fast ! But they can be temperamental they will deflate at the smallest changes good starter anems tho

well hes on the move im a little upset wish he would.have stayed where he was i hope be picks the rock next to it as his new home it was my first live rock and is centered in my tank it will keep him away from.my sebae whos still happy in his spot

The rbta i picked up is doing amazing !! This is it fully open i couldnt be happier with my choice gorgeous marking but the best news is that after a week he decided to host !

 

[fishroomlady]

congrats on the hosting!! I did want to mention that your other nem is a condy not a sebae.

 

[ReeferRookie]

Really. ? Everyone says its a sebae. Purple tip

 

[ReeferRookie]

Im inclined to agree its a condy after some research whats the difference

 

[Carlson Moncrief]

Condys are a lot cheaper and more available. They are also not very sticky and clownfish dont host them normally.
