Please tell me it won't eat his fish...also just saw that it split into 2.The picture is kind of dark, but it does look like a mini maxi carpet.
Rock flower anemones don’t split, so that helps answer the ID. I suppose that depends on the fish and how smart they are. I’m sure it would eat one if it caught it. I have read of it happening before.Please tell me it won't eat his fish...also just saw that it split into 2.
Pics?Yeah, I just got a porcelain anenome crab, he decided that he likes to host on my bta instead of my rfas...

I won’t say they can’t, but it’s unlikely to happen to a healthy fish.Great thread.
As a newbie to RFAs, just to clarify - they won’t eat small fish - is that right?
Thanks for your help.
You have a nice collectionMy porcelain anenome crab got bored and moved to my rfa garden. One of my big rfas decide to move and pushed another one out of its spot as well...lol.
Like Ron has stated, they are very hardy.
I don't really do much for acclimation, when I use to have to buy them, I'd throw it on some dry surface and let it expel all the water in itself before throwing it in the tank.
For QT, the number one thing you have to look for on a RFAs, are spiders. You will most likely spot them at night, they are nocturnal feeders. They will cause your RFA to buckle up wherever it's being drained from. A RFA that moves constantly and buckles up constantly, especially during the daylight hours, is a good indicator that it maybe infested. It is trying to get away from the spiders.
If you ever spot a spider, you can toss everything related to it or attempt to treat. Make sure to wash your hands if you find one, no.... scorch them before coming near your tank again. A lot of current treatments aren't very effective or are too effective but dangerous to every other organism. Either path you choose is an extreme headache.
