Hello all,
Last time I was at my LFS I may have gotten ahead of myself and purchased another anemone with some credit we had.
I asked the LFS about care and was told the Sebae they had was easy care and would do well in my current set up.
She’s been in our tank for 3 weeks and we’ve had to move...
Can anyone help me ID this nem? I was told it was a ritteri but it doesn’t seem to have characteristics for the species. I thought ritteri anemone were the type to find the highest point in the tank with good flow but this guy tends to stay inside a cave with lower flow. I’ve only had him for...

So I’ve had BTA’s a few times in the past, green one, and rose’s 2 different times. The green eventually shriveled up to nothing over the course of 6+ months and disappeared, same with the first rose bubble tip, second one lost in a tank crash so didn’t have it long. WHAT AM I DOING WRONG? I can...
So everyone told me buying a bleached anemone was a waste of time and money but I just had to try to save it, and wanted to educate people on what I did so maybe it can help save more. I know the video footage isn't the greatest, but this project has inspired me to want to start doing a YouTube...
I am new to the saltwater hobby , I have a evo that’s has been set up for about 3 months now. I am now looking to make some upgrades such as lights ect. Just not sure which ones i should focus on first.
Also what would be the best anemone for this tank and would i need upgraded lights ? I just...
Hi everyone,
Just recently set up my first saltwater tank in a Biocube 16. I’m fascinated with the different life forms so I purchased live rock from the ocean at my lfs. Let’s hope I don’t regret it. The rock is teaming with life, and much of it I am still trying to identify. I am aware that I...
I’ve read many threads about anemone killing coral, but I’m more curious in the process and what that looks like. I have a BTA on a rock and hasn’t moved since about the second day. I’ve a number of soft coral (zoa, toadstool, cabbage, xenia and goni) and know the BTA can kill. But how? Just...
Hi there,
I’m concerned about releasing my anemone back into my display tank. It’s currently housed in an acclimation box because it has a bad habit of moving about. Does anyone know where I can get an anemone guard for a Neptune WAV powerhead? I’ve searched on Etsy, eBay, Google, etc. and I...
I’m getting out of salt and back into freshwater. I have some livestock for sale then I will put up some equipment. Local pickup only (I live in West Knoxville). I have the following for sale:
2.5-3” a yellow Tang- $200
4-damsel fish (three black and white and one yellowtail) all get along-...
I’ve got a rose BTA that is about 10 inches now and has never split and a lot of 1-3 inch ultra speckled BTAs that split every 2-3 days. What do y’all think influences the frequency of a BTA splitting?

I’m in the process of parting together my 250 gallon beast, got impatient, and saw Waterbox having a 10 gallon cube sale and came up with this. Attached a AI Prime 16 HD Reef on it for good measure.
Now debating if I want to make it a nano reef or a nano anemone tank!
It’s not really a “problem” persay, but I have 1 percula, one Black ice, one cinnamon, and one black ocellaris. The cinnamon clown is v aggressive and bites me like a lil jerk lol. and it has decided to host all 3 of my nems without letting the others have any… is this normal? And How can I let...
About once a day my anemone seems to contract and generally look unhappy, it's my first anemone so I'm not sure what's wrong with it. Parameters are good only thing high is nitrates. Is this the culprit or something else cause sometimes it looks great. Even today it looked fine earlier but now...
Hello :)
I recently “inherited” (for lack of better term) a 120 gallon tank from a friend. The tank has 4 clownfish, 1 blue velvet damsel, 1 yellow damsel, 1 wrasse and a lawnmower blenny. It also has a green carpet anemone.
I’m clueless when it comes to the anemone. Does it look healthy...
I have a pair of clownfish that have decided they want to try and host in my gsp even though the anemone has settled right next to it. Is there any way to try and get them into the anemone instead of the green star polyp as it seems to stress the coral or do I just have to accept that they gsp...
I got this gig from @galactic_coral on 08/20/20. Since there were no other anemones with high risk of infection in the tank, the gig went directly into DT. At the time the DT was a 40B which was upgraded to SCA 120 gallon 7-8 months ago.
Prior to the upgrade the tank was illuminated by two...
