Anemones are amazing, but you have to keep them on an island

I have my BTAs on an island

But they do change, depending on tank. This was my RBTA in my nano:

Then when I transferred it to my current tank:

Then it lost its bubbles :-(

And this was my widow when I first got it! So cute!

And it grows big

Hello all Nem lovers! I am a new member and an avowed Nem lover. After moving back to San Antonio, and retiring (again - and for real this time) I decided I wanted to get back into saltwater tanks. I have a Biocube 32 with two Ocellaris clowns, one Lawnmower Blenny, and of course a great anemone. I have not named her yet. Maybe you can look at this picture and give me some ideas. The tank is new - just since 2/27/24. I added the fish and Nem a month later after quick cycling the tank. She has really grown. It only took er two days to figure out where she wanted to be, and lucky for me, it is slap dab in the middle of my tank.
Welcome!!! Beautiful nem!

Thank you for the compliment! I've been collecting anemones, mostly Magnifica, for a couple of years now. I also have a small carpet anemone lagoon, and a rainbow BTA/SPS tank as well. All will be moved into a larger single tank within the next couple of months......hopefully! :)

RFAs were my first true love in reefing. Hopefully you’ll end up with a few more in the future!
