Green BTAs have been added. Looks like they have pink tips, but they’re a little washed out right now. Hopefully they’ll color up under better lighting.

The addition of the nems hasn’t made the female more aggressive, which is a major relief.

Neat that you have wild caught hybrid in your tank. Good luck with them. Hope they don't love your small BTA anemone to death.
Thanks- they’re really one of a kind. I actually have them in with a ~15” blue/purple haddoni. Bubble tips did well but the big haddoni was too good to pass up at my LFS.

An interesting note about these two:

They hang around the big carpet nem all day- female in the nem and the male below it. They seldom occupy the anemone together. No egg laying yet but plenty of courtship twitching and whatnot.

Small update, they sleep in the nem together at night, which I hadn't seen because the tank is in my office.
