So I got these bleached carpet anemone I a month ago I believe they are Haddon’s.
I’ve been nursing them back by feeding regularly and they are now very sticky and eat well, reactive to being bothered by shrinking fast, mouths shut tight. Both seem to prefer the shade during the day and moved to be over shadowed but they come out huge at night, not sure if this a acclimation issue or a reaction to being bleached? Lighting is twin 150w MH and 2x T5 40w one actinic and one marine white.
What do you think, normal behaviour? Colour look better? Are they Haddon’s?
This is taken just a moment ago with just light from the room, half hour after feeding.
This is during the day, first one moved into a crevice. Second one flattens itself to the rock.
This is the colour they were when I got them.
