Recently my parents got some live oysters delivered to them as a gift (for them to eat).
I found some interesting-looking anemone on one of their shells so I decided to put it in my tank (as you do). Yay! It's my first anemone and it's free! It got like 4 times bigger after getting into the water.
I tried googling and found out it's an "orange-striped green sea anemone" (Diadumene lineata). I didn't expect to actually be able to ID them by searching online.
I've read from some local sites that, according to some people that have kept them in their tanks before, these anemones seem quite hardy.
So far, it's only been a day but my sexy shrimps haven't hosted it and I'm not sure if they will.
The snail on the right is the mud snail from the fish market that went into my tank around on June 2021. I've made a post about it before. Wow, it's almost been 2 years. There were like 4 that went in and I think there's only 1~2 that is still alive.
When it's closed up. I've dropped a formula one pellet on it but it wasn't doing anything. Hours later it was all closed up. Not sure if it's related though.
The oyster is also alive btw (at least for now). Doubt it will live for very long due to the water temp but if it can, I'm getting a bunch more to go in there.
