Thought I would share this. I’ve had this one for quite some time and it has been doing well. A week or two ago I noticed my salinity was a little low so I dissolved some sale in a small container and added it to a high flow area. There was a small amount of undissolved crystals that fell out and some of them landed on the borneman anemone. It closed up for a day or so and reopened and did accept food. Today I noticed that it had split. Probably was from the salt incident but fortunately otherwise the parameters are good and stable.

Borneman reproduce asexually by several ways, trauma, pedal laceration (the anemone move leave some of the foot behind and it grow into a new anemone) and pinching (the column pinched and the top flow to another place and attach while the food grow a new mouth and oral disc with tentacles.
