My friend has been running a 20 gallon tank for about 6 months now. After moving too fast and crashing his tank already he has asked for my advice to slowly restock his tank. It has been 3 months since the crash and he has since added a cleanup crew and 3 small fish. His nitrates aren’t perfect...
I got 2 BTA 3 days ago for my 3 month old 30 gallon tank. I am well aware it’s a new tank. Is this normal or should I be concerned? I have an established 60 gallon tank I could move them to just not sure if I should or not. Please give me some advice!
i'm very excited to have received these two specimens today. i'm not sure how many are still alive here in the u.s. and i was just told there may be no more coming in, as well. we'll see how they do. they are currently housed in a biocube 32g with two clownfish, one starry blenny, one cleaner...
Rock Flower Anemone, wondering if he looks healthy.
he was put in tank about 10 days ago, but 2 days ago moved a few inches. He looks good to me but what do I know? (Nothing!). Would like to hear from others what they think via this picture;
Hey everyone. I don't post much stuff for sale but I can't help it this time.
I've got some beauuuutiful glowing rock flower nems for sale.
I am asking $65 shipped for one nem, or $120 shipped for three nems.
Their sizes vary from 2" to 4". However, mostly around 4". I am more than welcome to...
Howdy yall, I have a half dozen black widow anemones available, from 1 inch to 6 inches, also have a 3 inch ($140 shipped) and 1 inch ($50 add on) widowmaker available
The snail was pressing on the BTA’s foot (I guess) and he flattened out, then pulled the turbo into his mouth. Should I be worried? I’ve read of anemones suddenly dying after eating snails. BTW, there is another turbo right behind it. Thanks for any advice

We purchased this anemone a few months ago and everything was going great. We had a pair of clowns that were hosting in it, etc. 120gal tank, and all parameters have been great. We feed the anemone jumbo shrimp, raw, every day and he always ate well. Now, within the past week he's gone rogue and...
I'm a relatively new reefer (3 months in) and saw a condy nem at my LFS that I really wanted so regrettably without much thought I bought it... it's a very large one and as you can see in the picture attached and it's taken up residence under a cave rock (been there for a week).
I just...
Hey everyone!
So I'm new to the hobby and this is my first rock flower and first anemone so forgive me for not knowing, still trying to learn.
Let me give a little backstory on this crazy introduction to my tank:
So I got the rock flower and did what most all people say on acclimating...
Hello all, I am looking to clarify exactly what each grade of RFA (or any nem for that matter) means. I know there are ultra and rainbow versions, what are the difference between the two? Are there more grades as well? Thanks in advance my reefing friends!!
Can someone explain the differences between the lineages for sunburst anemones? Like Sang Lee and Elite reef. As well, what makes a Colorado sunburst anemone a true one, and how can you tell that it is. Thanks
So everything in my tank looks great but my BTA won’t open. It’s been at lest 2 months of prolonged closure and it’s moved once about 2 weeks ago. I have had this BTA for about 6 months and I can’t figure out why this is happening? Any help would be appreciated.
I picked up this long tentacle anemone at Petco a couple months ago. It’s colored up nicely and is happily hosting a McCullochi female.
Curious to see photos of other long tentacle nems. Anyone have an unusual color form? Please post a picture.
Could someone please help me figure out why My long tentacle anemone seems to like keeping his mouth open and at times poking it inside out?He had it open when I brought him home it was not protruding at that time. It closed during the acclimation then opened again right after putting it in the...

Starting a thread for my 29 gallon reef that I hope to turn into an anemone, LPS, and Zoa tank. Just painted the back and added my filter which I will be putting filterfloss, poly filters, and chemipure blue in.
More updates coming Friday and Monday!

Anyone own a successful 29 or 30 gallon reef tank? If so I’d love to know your secrets! Let me know how you’re running it and what fish/coral you’ve got in it! I was thinking about setting up an 29 gallon anemone tank with a Wyoming white and oceslarrous clowns. I’d love to add a couple more...
Pretty brutal. My two Allardi's attacking my two ocellaris clowns.
You can see in the video how he keeps ramming him into the anemone. (sorry for the vertical filming, it wasn't me but my girlfriend who took it)
I was out the country when this happened. The Ocellaris survived 10 days with this...
I need to know of this is a normal anemone thing..i took pictures but im not sire how well you can see them. Every morning when i wake up before i turn on the aquarium lights my nems are usually closed up. Well this morning they were however they both had white 'threads' coming from them. I...
Hi guys,
Got a new Clarkii clown a few days ago and he immediately bonded with my anemone after only a couple of hours.
I have two ocellaris clowns that have been there for months, but never taken or shown interest in my anemones.
Apart from the above anemone I also have a bubble tip.
Tank...
Hello guys, I’ve added my first anemone to my 2 years old tank about A month ago. Since then Is seems to have bleached and it’s in really rough shape today. I tried feeding it pellets and reef roids, but nothing seems to help. Did a 30% water chega-me yesterday and it seems to made things worse...
Changed my lighting system yesterday from a current 48” v1 to 2 hydra 26s set to the David Saxby lighting schedule but will be in acclimation mode for the next month. Came home today and the nem looked horrible...should I be worried?
it moved about 6-7” down further in my rock work, it’s not...
