I am interested in hearing about anemone success stories with pics and what has made keeping the anemone in your tank successful.


For example, my sebae arrived extremely bleached. I was able to rehab by feeding it once a week in the beginning and keeping it under 2 X 250 MH with 4 X 96 PC bulbs. I also had stable water parameters. I have had my anemone for 2 years now.

Before (it was more bleached but this is the only early pic I have):

Now:

Oh how I would love love to get in on this one!! Because those are my babies. I promise I am learning to post pictures and WILL have them whatever it takes.

If you upload them to photobucket, it is pretty easy. You could even PM me the links and I can post them or help show you how to. :)

Or if you need more help, you can shoot me a PM and I can guide you.
