Bubble tip anemones for sale

rcmike · Nov 27, 2018

Hey guys, my anemone tank is getting a little overgrown so I'm going to sell some of them. I can hopefully get 4 or 5, maybe more, off of the rocks. I'll sell them for $30 each. They are a little agitated right now since I moved the gyre around last night and changed the flow. I can bring them to the reef club meeting this Saturday or maybe meet before the meeting. Lightning maroon not for sale but should have some babies available soon!

Here are a couple of older pictures of some. Depending on lighting, flow, etc. they sometimes have bubble tips.

Im having a little problem with my quarantine tank right now, so I can't get one yet! But it is definitely in my near future! I'll keep you in mind for sure... those look really nice!

Still waiting to see if I can make the meeting this weekend! My youngest has a soccer tournament in Gatlinburg... but I might be coming back saturday night!

Do you still have any left?

Yes, I do. I got a couple for Eagle_Steve and found out most of them have moved into holes in the rocks and are going to take some persuading to get out. The other day several were on the move due to changing the flow pattern. I'll point a powerhead at some and see if I can get them to come out. It may take a little while for them to move though.

No problem or rush. Have a Clown that needs something to love.

rcmike · Dec 2, 2018

Cool, I'll let you know when I get one free.

rcmike · Dec 3, 2018

I got one free Bryn by placing a tile over it and shading it until it moved. I put it in my frag tank with no rocks so it's ready whenever you are. I might head to Nashville this weekend but I'm not 100% sure yet. No rush, whenever you're ready for it.

Any available?

Mr.L3wis · Dec 14, 2018

Also interested

rcmike · Dec 14, 2018

Yes. I still have some. I will try and get them to move where I can get them out. I put a tile over some of them to shade them this morning to hopefully get them to move. If they move by then I could bring them to Nashville with me tomorrow.

I’m interested as well. What is your location? Anyone near murfreeseboro?

I’ve got several but will have to get them off the rocks. I’m in Dickson but come to Nashville every so often. It will probably be sometime in January before I have a chance to get some out. We’re going out of town after Christmas for a while.

nashvillian · Jan 27, 2019

Still interested. PM me when you have the chance. Live right by the Critter.

Sorry I haven't updated. I got two out and Bryn and nashvillian spoke first so they would go to them of they want them. I have a couple of issues though.
1. Most of the anemones, including the two I got out, are doing something weird. They are kind of turning their mouth inside out and have been doing it for a few weeks now. I've been trying to reduce the nutrients in the system and I don't know if that is the problem or what. They really don't look all that good at the moment.
2. They are pretty stuck in the rocks and the lightning maroon pair in the tank has turned evil and makes ot difficult to spend much time in the tank. I've been trying to put tiles over the anemones like I did before but the clowns knock them off. I've even put a decent sized rock on the tile and they knocked it off as well. I haven't been trying since the anemones started looking bad though.

With that said, I think it would be better for me to wait until they start looking better unless you really want one. In the future I'll get them out before I put them up for sale.

Here is a picture of what I'm talking about. The ones I got out and have in the frag tank look even worse.

nashvillian · Jan 29, 2019

I’ll take one. He’s just a little hungry.

rcmike · Jan 29, 2019

Cool. I might be going to Aquatic Critter tomorrow but not sure yet. It would probably be 11 or 12ish if I get to. I could also meet you on a weekend day maybe.

I honestly have never intentionally fed them. They get a little sometimes from when I feed the fish. They all are from a one I got several years ago. One of the original splits is in the reef tank and all of these came from the other split. They have been thriving and multiplying for a couple of years in this tank.
