Tube Anemone Show-Off Thread

[ReeferRob]

You know, it's funny. When I first got into this hobby...even before I had my first tank, I remember being totally amazed by a display tank at a LFS that had both pink and purple tube anemones. I just thought they were the coolest things ever... yet I never ended up owning one. So I finally just said screw it, I'll remove whatever I have to to make room :bigsmile:

Any idea if you can have multiples touching? I'd love to get a purple version right next to it.

Ya its totally cool. I have a purple one right next to my pink. There is a little rock in between them but their tentacles touch and their tubes do as well bellow the sand.
