bubble tip anemone

Hi guys!! We are in our first year of building a reef / marine Tank. We currently have a 95 gallon corner tank with about 120 lbs of live rock, a tomato clown fish living in her medium bubble tip anemone, a maroon clownfish, a 3 striped damselfish, (2) domino damselfish, a coral beauty, a yellow...

Hey everyone! I’m finally taking the responsibility to heal my BTA. it’s been some time and it WAS beautiful. Looked like a CSB but it was just a hint of rainbow in it. I’m sorry to say it bleached in the move from my 13.5 to my 25 So far it’s kept it’s colour and has been doing better but no...

Hello, I'm new to the community but have read countless posts on the site. I made an account for this question. I started an anemone only tank 5 months ago. It's a fiji cube 76 gallon shallow, 48x24x16. I purchased a kessil ap9x for lighting, cycled the tank properly, tested the water weekly...

Hi friends, I’m fairly new to the care of an anemone and am looking for some input. I just got this anemone about 4 days ago and have been witnessing some strange behavior patterns, just wanted to make sure it’s normal with pictures to elaborate. So acclimation process went pretty smooth, temp...

Hey another question, definitely have an emergency on my hands and need to know what to do ASAP. As much input as I can get would be appreciated. I have a 29 gallon tank about 3 months old housing two ocellaris clowns and a bunch of mushroom corals. 3 days ago we added some new tank mates 4...

I’m really struggling with my bubble tip anemones (4x small, ~5cm specimens) and am running out of ideas! The tank has been running for around 15 months with bubble tip anemones first introduced 7 months ago. For the first 4 months, they were beautifully healthy, with excellent inflation, colour...

Hello, When I woke up this morning the anemone was now under the rock and looks a bit strange. First glance I thought it was dead or dying but it is still secured to the rock. Last night I checked on the tank and the anemone was in its normal place opened with my clowns in it and at 9am this...

Looking to add some more color to my tank, looking for an affordable black widow, a green, etc...Will consider taking rose or rainbow to add to my current stock. Will take quantity or just a single one. I don't care about designer names or to pay for designer prices, just looking for interesting...

Our rbta has been on a steady decline. That picture is end of March when we upgraded our lights. Since then it has been shrinking steadily and since yesterday wrapped up and hiding. Help me save it please!!! I have revive coral dip, could possibly come up with a small hospital tank if...

So I have this rose colored bta who was happy for MONTHS…then he closed up completely like 3 months ago and I thought he died (just stuck to the rock about the size of a pea). Well, I wasn’t for sure so I kept an eye on him and left him (never opened). So about a month ago I decided it’s time to...

Hello, I have a RBTA, and have had it for about 2 months. Super flowy and *was seemingly* doing awesome. My clowns never cared about it. About a week ago, my two clouds figured it out, and are in it like crazy all day long. And around the base of the anemone, I see some trochus snails. I've...

Hi, so I’ve had this Bubble Tip Anemone for around 3-4 months now and haven’t had any problems, it’s doubled in size, but this past week it has slowly gotten to this point, it’s never done this before and just wondered if anyone knows why?!?

What are these white spots? I’m assuming it’s sand but I might be wrong.

So this is my Green BTA, been in the tank for about 2 months. Always had great extension and was a perfect until about 2 weeks ago and now will not extend tentacles. Below is my Red BTA, another beautiful specimen on the same rock about 6 inches away and could not be happier. Any ideas what’s...

Ok, this may be difficult to answer. I want to move an anemone from my tank at home, to my office tank that i built specifically for anemones. The problem is, my tank has just begun getting dinos, and my office tank has just now gotten mature enough for my bubble tip nems. The real question...

I have the fluval 13.5G and recently(2weeks ago) switched from stock lighting to the new RedSea50 Led light. I have a mix of soft corals, fish, shrimp, snails and a rainbow bubble anemone that has lost all his rainbow and not been Bubbled fully since I got him several months ago. Any light...

Hey everyone, So, I was planning on getting a bubble tip anemone on Sunday and was puzzling over how I would prevent it from wandering into the power head (it’s a hydor koralia). I dislike the idea of trying to put mesh or something like that over it, simply because it might clog and would...

Hi, Bought a BT Anemone recently and it was about 3in. It went hiding ever since i put it in my tank. Just found it recently and it is so small and in a difficult place to reach even for feeding... what should i do? Thanks in advance.

I just got this Bubble Tip anemone from Live Aquaria. I got three. One died in transit. One is doing incredible, nice and fluffy hosting my clowns, eating a little bit of Silver side. The third is questionable. I don’t know if it’s okay. It is not fluffy, it doesn’t want to eat. The clowns like...

I added a Peppermint shrimp to my Fluval Evo tank a couple of hours ago to eat Aiptasia that’s started growing in my tank. I was absolutely horrified to see my Red Fire Clown attack it, then pick it up and feed it to his BTA!!! I can’t find anywhere on the internet to say Peppermint Shrimps...

Hello, I got my first BTA about a month ago. It was looking great, but then decided to move around the tank a bit, and slowly started getting smaller and contracted. It still is sticking to the rock, and moved to the front side of my rock overnight. But it has been looking like this during the...

Hi, I've had this bubble tip anemone for about 2 weeks. I'm really unsure about what it is experiencing. It kind-of opens up at night, but the tentacles look stuck. During the day, it closes up a bit, but not totally. Its mouth is partially open during the day, although not gaping. It doesn't...

Astro's 250 Reefer Mixed Reef Tank 11/14 12/07: Hey all! I am a new reefer and member of this forum from Canada! I started the hobby with a Fluval 32.5g tank, but after a month in I decided to upgrade to a Red Sea Reefer 250. With a new tank comes a new build thread, and here it is! For...

Hi guys, My BTA has been like this for the last couple days. He has been stuck behind a rock and seemed to be doing okay until recently. I found him like this a couple days ago. It looks like he might be hanging over, not strong enough to correct himself. I’ve tried feeding him with raw shrimp...

^ looking to buy these morphs of bubble tips.
