Maxi mini in a sps reef?

classklown90 · Feb 27, 2013

I've never kept an anemone but found a real nice Maxi mini anemone. I'm fine with keeping it I'm just worried it'll sting ny sps. Is this a safe choice or should I stay away?

I have a spot but I'm afraid of it moving around the tank

My carpet seems to avoid coral, when it stretches out it does it in an awkward shape that goes around any sps near it. Not saying they'll all do this, my old bubble tip seemed to go after any coral near it. My carpet also has been moving around a lot lately and is somehow avoiding everything. It's about 12in + diameter fully expanded.

I have several in my mixed reef tank. They can move around but I have found that they do not move around anything like the rbtas. Here are some pictures

These 2 have been in the same spot for 2yrs now :) Have eaten 3 fish. I truly don't think they'll sting your corals. Fully open they're about 5-6"
