carpet anemone

My friend got a new carpet anemone yesterday and today he found it like this. The lfs had said they got the anemone in that day and when we acclimated it to the tank we did feed it a piece of silver side. Does he need to remove it before it nukes everything? Will it pull through?

I'm curious how many people have lost fish to their carpet anemones, specifically Haddoni. I'm weighing whether or not I should risk one (I understand there is a risk no matter what). Please feel free to include tank size, how long you've owned the anemone(s), and the type(s) of fish that were...

:eek: :eek: :eek: Dang, this thing is so large I can't even get the entire anemone to be in focus because I can't get far enough away from the top-down lol! Although this guy is probably for the high rollers out there if anyone is in the market for a huge carpet, this one is absolutely...

I wanted to make a thread that follows my dealings with Stychodactyla gigantea (gig) carpet anemones and post updates to some experiments with them. My first post I want to introduce maybe the most rare gig I’ve come across so far, a red gig. The classification of this anemone was under...

Does your haddoni carpet like it up on the rocks? I’m curious how many live on rocks instead of in the sand like in the wild in peoples tanks.

WTB: Non-green or purple small haddoni that doesn't break the bank, is that asking too much?

A shameless show off of bad photos (iphone cameras don’t do well with fluorescent animals!). It’s red/orange, tending towards more orange. The accurate color would be if you blended the first two photos together, but I’m terrible with photography and editing. It’s big, about 30-40cm (the...

Hi guys, I bought a large carpet anemone from petco yesterday, drop acclimated it and transferred to my DT. At first it looked fine, same as in the shop, but after a few hours it appeared deflated with gaping mouth and white smoke like fluid coming from mouth. Water parameters are all ok - my...

If anyone is looking to sell their Hemprichii or pizza anemone please let me know!

I’ve had a purple carpet (Haddoni I think, maybe Mertens, though? Pardon the LED photo, it’s actually under ~14k ish and about ~150 PAR average, higher near the top, lower near the bottom) for about a month. It attached quickly, burying it’s foot, but then I realized a few days later it had...

Does anybody know what sand bed depth Haddoni and Gigantea Anenomes require?

Mini maxi Gold/Purple/Green anemone approximately 3-4 inches wide Pickup in Jupiter Florida ( Anemone Coral reef aquarium frag saltwater )

Looking to see if anyone has successfully kept a deep sand bed and has some suggestions . I have a carpet anemone so need at least 4” Now since we are mostly trying to mimic ocean conditions has anyone ever layered the sand like 40% coarse crushed coral ,40% special grade and 20% sugar...

Good morning everyone! I wanted to post a thread to let everyone know about the success I had have using Fish Flex (Cephalexin) on a few Haddoni. Long story short, I have an established GIANT (maybe 20") blue haddoni that I have had for some time. I recently acquired 2 additional haddoni, one...

This blue green carpet has been in my tank for around a year. I recently added some extra lighting and the new started moving. That doesn't work for me with all the corals I have placed around the tank. I think i'm ready to let someone else keep this beautiful 12-14" carpet. $250 with local pickup

Approximately 1.5" - Purple

What inverts can be housed with carpet anemones? Looking to add shrimp and crabs. Also what fish can safely be with carpets with out getting eaten ? Thanks in advance

This starts with a family of the spectacular blue-striped clowns in their stylish purple carpet anemone. The larger female was doing some house cleaning around the mouth of the anemone to remove some sand particles. Then we have a look at the largest tomato clown colony I have ever seen...
