I will never get over the beauty of these creatures

[laezur]

When I first began reefing, my dream was to own an anemone. They are a big part of the reason I got into reef keeping.

I failed, and I was uninformed and naive. i tried again, armed with knowledge and patience and now I get to look at these beautiful animals every day and, for just a moment, forget about the stressors and worries of the real world.

I got into reef because of anemone and clown fish also. I killed my first anemone quickly too. I did not attempt again until 15 years later. My clowns are getting lost in their new Taj Mahal.
I am keeping various anemones for 25+ years now and never grow tire of them.

That is an Onyx variety of A. percula. She was wild caught.

As my screen name implies, anemones are a big part of what I enjoy most in this hobby. I will never not love them. I'm glad you're successful!
