ritteri

Just wanted to share my experience so far with a Ritteri Anemone, as I know they're a challenging one to keep. I tried once before about a year ago or so, but I think I was a bit too greedy with what I was doing. I added it to my 40g breeder that I turned it into an AIO by building an overflow...

My Heteractis magnifica is forsale for 45.00. Local only. I really want it to go to a good home more than the money. I know he is worth way more than that. First off he is large and bigger than a dinner plate. I would suggest you have kept anemones and been in the hobby at least 5 years. I...

So I purchased a small ritteri and immediately placed him in a QT setup with cipro starting on day 2 when it began to expel the brown substance. Eventually it stopped deflating and looked good for the main tank. I waited 2 weeks since it last expelled till I put it in the DT. Current status...

Hello, I purchased a ritteri on Monday. Water was clear tentacles extended and inflated when arrived. Acclimated to temp and salinity. Monday looked great extended and inflated. Tentacles sticky. Tuesday no deflation noted no water change. Tentacles sticky. Wouldn’t eat picked up food...

Hi Guys, i got an H. Magnifica over an week ago. It expanded its tentacles the first three days well. Then my clowns got ahold of it and now its looking like this. Is he doomed or just mad? The second picture was three days ago

Hello All, I’m going start a new tank build and wanted to share it here as well as use it as a way to document things for myself. I currently have a 10g nano tank I have been running for the last three years or so. This is my next/upgrade tank I'll be doing. After several years I kind of found...

Its all in the title! Here is an update of my buds tank I am helping with. They are quite ambitious with their goals, and my job is to steer them in the right direction and help them realize their dream nem tank!

I working on my lighting settings for a ritteri in one tank and a gigantea in another tank. I have Radion XR30 G6 Pro's. Looking for some suggestions/parameters. If there is a thread about it, send it along, I could not find one. Thank you for the help!

Stocking the tank is still TBD, but need some tips on the fill up! We plan to mix a few different bacteria, use about 80-120lb of live sand and same for marco rock. We will be getting a bio brick or two rated for 150lb of rock equivalent. LFS said we could use tap on the fill up with prime or...

2 healthy Heteractis Magnifica anemones for sale, both are about 12” around when fully extended, they have been treated for bacterial infection and have been doing well in my tank for 6+ months, looking to rehome them since they have grown so big, $175 each or $300 for both, may consider trades.

I got a magnificent sea anemone 2 days ago, I’m approaching the 48 hr mark now. The nem has a firm footing and all its tentacles are inflated. However its mouth hasn’t closed, it’s stretched 2-3 inches across. Bubbled around the mouth. It also seems to be struggling to inflate almost half of its...

First time really selling anything but I got 6 purple ritteri with yellow foot from an estate sales, kept one for my self so 5 up for sale. Color is nothing crazy, they all came from the same tank, not sure captive bred or not but they all look identical and were stuck on the same rock when i...

Hey, So I just got this mag nem from my lfs, around 2 days ago, his mouth was a bit loose so I just dropped him into an antibiotic QT tank (since Im treating one of my acro anyway). So it looks much better now mouth shut and sticky never deflated or anything like that. BUT last night and this...

I just bought this Ritteri anemone and got it in today. I let it adjust for a few hours too the new tank. It inflated a whole lot more and looks better but the mouth is still gaping, and it came in bleached. I just started cipro treatment after lights out and plan to continue it after every...

Hey, I recently had a water chemistry issue (calcium dosing pump failed AND alkalinity pump lost calibration within one day of each other, and I’m not at home currently, staff cares for the aquarium 3x/week. 4th time I’ve problems with Kamoer dosing pumps, don’t use them!) so my alk spiked to...

Hello, just received a magnifica this morning. It looks pretty healthy overall. I’ve got it in a hospital tank for cipro treatment currently. While acclimating I realized the anemone has 2 mouths. Does this mean it started to split and then didn’t? Or that it will split? Just curious as I...

Located in MN but willing to pay for shipping. Thank you

Hello everybody, I have really been wanting a ritteri anemone, it would be the only thing in the tank, so I’m not worried about it stinging corals, I was just wondering about care level, such as nitrate levels and stuff like that, my tank is a 20 gallon long, currently keep a healthy Rbta in it...

Hey guys, I just got a new young ritteri from my LFS. It was the only ritteri that shipped to their location fully healthy. It looks a little like a BTA but I was told this is because it is still young and an Indonesian Ritteri. It is strong brown/purple base and tentacles with white tips. It...
