    Not sure what’s happening to my anemone

    Hey Brad here, As of yesterday my green bubble tip looks really contracted and isn’t showing off his beautiful bubble tips as much. He has some of the Tentacles out and he reacts and eats mini mysis. Should I be concerned? What’s the best course of action? (Pics of him will be below)

    Should I be concerned LTA

    I've had this LTA for about 9 months now. I know nems sometimes bite their tentacles and I've seen it happen before but not randomly like this, should I be concerned?

    Anemone Splitting. How long does it take your net to split?

    Hello all- This is the first time I've had an anemone split on me. Haven't got much done today because I've been stuck in front of my tank lol. It's a really intriguing process to witness. At first I thought it was melting, but then noticed 2 separate foots firmly attached and lengthening of...

    Why is my anemone doing this?

    I have two red BTAs. I've had them both for about 6 months. They both used to open up "normally" I guess you could say, but one has been doing this for about a month(see first picture ). Notice one looks like it opens "normal" and the other looks bloated? I don't know how else to describe it...

    Anemone under rock for a month... (also can maroon clown questions)

    My GBTA has been under a ledge for over a month. Been wondering if this is a problem. The anemone is expanding well but doesn't have as much of a bubble tentacle compared to before. The maroon is feeding it krill I put near it. The anemone hasn't moved since I got it except for maybe 1" towards...

    Joe’s Juice

    Hi all, I’ve got about 3 aiptasia and I’m going to purchase joes juice. Only question I have, is it safe to use around my good anemones, they’re somewhat close to aiptasia, and also is it safe to use for one attached to my maxima clam? When injection I’ll turn off flow to maximize accuracy

    H Magnifica // Observing Behavior

    Although I've been in the hobby going on 13+ years, I've only been keeping anemones (BTAs up to this point) over the past 2 years. After setting up a tank dedicated to anemones, I started hunting around for captive-held Magnificas over the past several after soaking up every bit of information...

    Anemone acclimation

    Hi all I'm looking for some input on my new green bubble tip anemone weird behavior. I guess all anemones are weird, but this one must be weirder. So I got this guy 2 weeks ago, and it has been going back and forth. Sometimes it closes at night hiding all its tentacles inside the body, and...

    My RBTA won’t attach to anything

    I got my RBTA 2 days ago. He was attached to a rock so I carefully removed him with an ice cube and turkey baster. I acclimated him for temp and ph for a reasonable amount of time before placing him into the tank. I used my anemone basket to float him near the top of the tank to kind of isolate...

    Green BTA added to tank - not sure if acting normal?

    Hi all, I recently added a Green Bubble Tip Anemone (at least, that's how it was identified at the LFS and what it seems to be). It was added to my 100 gallon system last Thursday night and immediately took to the lower left corner of the tank, away from rocks, and attached itself to the back...
