So I just purchased my first rock anemone at my LFS yesterday. and WOW! The color on this baby is incredible! I am IN LOVE and how slightly addicted.
So.... I wanna see yours! Tell me a little about them too. What made you want one? How do you care for yours? Any special tricks? Anyone have a...
Hey all, hope all are well. I have had my clownfish sense they were juvenile and still mostly orange and white but to this day I can’t figure out why they don’t act like all other mated pair I’ve saw. They are two different kinds I remember that but I that they were both ocellaris so they would...
I just got this anemone and and drip acclimated for like 1 hour and put it in like 20 minutes ago I just want to know if it looks fine because it is deflated
Sorry if this has been posted/asked before. I have about 17 anemones in my aquarium. I started with 2 originally and they've split several times. They are BTAs but they only bubble sometimes as everyone knows already. My question is why do some of my nems have their mouth sticking out. I'm not...
Hello all!
I’m looking to trade one of my many rainbow bubble tip anemones. I have 9 total, all natural splits, about 4-5” each. I’m looking to trade maybe three of them total. These can be three separate deals or one. These rainbows are very nice with bright orange, red and green. They also...
I bought a small bubble tip Anemone Friday 6/12/20. It looked good in the store; vibrant colors, holding on the container. It was about the size of a half dollar. When I brought it home I immediately began in-the-bag acclimation over the course of an hour and a half. It was open and sticking to...
Okay so I bought a tri coloured bubble tip anemone about 3 months ago and it has settled in nicely, when I bought it, it was about the size of a coin and now it's about the size of the palm of my hand. It has recently moved, I think as it grew it had grown into direct flow of my Powerhead so it...
Well it’s finally happened the wife cracked and we’re finally getting a rainbow nem!!!
First I would love to get some ideas for nem placement. Post a pic of how you house them In your tank! Bonus for a brief on your thoughts behind it.
Second I need some advice in my current plan:
As with...
I am setting up a 72 gallon clownfish harem with 18 clowns. I am planning to purchase all 18 from the same clutch, plenty of Bta anemones, and feeding 4 times a day using an auto feeder to reduce aggression. I have a few questions though.
The first is on flow. What type of flow pump would you...
This morning my dad saw a few bristle worms on a rock with 2 anemones. During the process of removing them the rock broke and one of the anemones on the rock fell and was split in half, is there anyway of saving him? It looks like there is some of his guts in front of him or something. Please help!
Good evening all and hope everyone is doing well! I just paired a wonderful clownish couple and was thinking my next step to get a anemone for them? I have a great local fish store that I will buy from and was wondering if you have any good tips for the pair and anemone top thrive? I have a...
I am looking at buying a bubble tip anemone for my reef tank. The only thing that is putting me off is that my favourite coral is attached to some Rock in a way that means I cannot move it. All of my other coral is free and easy to move out of an anemones way whilst if finds its footing but the...
Hey guys,
I'm new here so it's cool to meet you all. I'm posting this today because I noticed my poor Colorado Sunburst BTA is starting to look really strange... Never seen a nem look like it before. It almost looks as though it's withering. The tentacles look almost flat!! This occurred after...
Hey guys,
I recently purchased a massive Ritteri Anemone from my LFS. This guy is huge and has a purple brownish base and tentacles With purple tips. Now, this anemone has been in someone’s tank for a few years and then the LFS bought it for credit and has had it for a month.
My concern is...
Hello all!
I started a new tank build yesterday on a 65 gallon tank with a 20 gallon sump. I’ll update as I go, but here are the pictures so far.
So fricken excited!!
I’ve had a few rock flower anemones for a while and they’ve been doing great in my tank. I recently got a new one from a company that’s been giving me trouble last week and it appears to not be doing so good. What are signs that a rock flower anemone is dead? Also what steps should I take if it...
