Hello Everyone and Happy Saturday!
I went by Petco a few weeks ago to grab supplies and as I walked by the Saltwater tanks, this anemone caught my eye.. It looked healthy and hosting a clown, but appeared severely bleached, so I decided to rescue it.
When I inquired about the anemone with the employee, he indicated that it was a donation by a family that was moving out of the country and they don't really know what type of anemone it is. I showed some of the pictures to our local LFS and they said it's BTA that's bleached, but they had some doubts as well.
The most interesting thing about it is that it will not attach to anything and seems to be content just chilling in the cave I've put him in and I had to put him there to avoid him rolling around like a soccer ball. I've been feeding hit small bits of shrimp for a few weeks and he seems to very happy and hosting my pair of Maroon Clown fish. They too feed him as well.
Any thoughts or input would be greatly appreciated from the Anemone experts out there!
Cheers,
Reza
