What trace elements do anemones need?

[reefawayyy]

Hi, I’m starting an Anemone Only tank and would like to keep with minimal water changes. It’ll be a 12G shallow tank.

Do anemones consume trace elements? If so, what trace elements do they need to stay nice and healthy?

They'll need the same common parameters given for corals. I'd suggest finding out from whoever you get your anemone fros what they do for theirs. My anemones don't get anything extra except sodium bicarbonate when the system needs it. They do get fish poop however. And just FYI, a 12 gallon may be too small. I would encourage youi to do 20-30% water changes monthly. There's pollutants that are not removed by GAC or skimmers that can only be dilluted with water changes.

agreed Especially for this stocking list
12 is too small
