What is this new thing?

Reefrookie733 · Apr 16, 2020

Hey all,
I've had this AIO for about 4 years and had the same clown fish and anemone, but this other one just popped up. I've never looked it up but i think the anemone i have is a bubble tip. Is this a new spawn from the old ones??
Thanks
Wes

Looks like it. When happy (or stressed) nems will split.
Guessing yours are happy nems!!

i've actually got way too many of them in this 28G AIO. Can you split them and maybe give to LFS or someone locally? I've never tried to frag anything before! lol

People actually sell them all the time. Tank raised nems are a hot commodity as many wild caught come in sick.
Trading to your LFS is also a great way to get all those needed supplies much cheaper or even free!
Just make sure not to hurt the nems if removing some. Never tear the foot as that means certain death
