Recommended Posts

keeping anemone is not a simple task but it can be accomplished...... firstly you need to know that anemone will move about at their own will, thus stuff which possses a threat to them such as power head must be fitted with either net or something else to prevent the anemone from venturing into it. And also due to the movement of the anemone, some corals especially softies will get sting by it. Next you need to know that due to the presence of zooanthelle, anemone indeed need very strong lighting, preferbly t5s or MH and normal or low output lighting such as FL will not do. It will just cause the anemoen to bleach and waste away. Next you need to know that anemone is an invertebrate more closely related to the jelly fish family, thus occasional feeding is required and piece of market prawn meat will be happily consumed by it......

And if you ever kept an anemone, good luck with it :lol::lol::lol:

Water quality n strong lighting need to be taken into consideration too. ;)

unless it is VERY satiafied with its position, it will move about until it finds a suitable place to settle. so selfish, stinging everthing just to get to its favourite place. <_<

But if you tame me, we shall need each other.

To me, you will be unique in all the world.

The foot of the anemone was probably anchored on the glass bottom. ;)

It's for its security and not because there is 'food down there'! :lol:

I am just using a rainbow brand 3 ft lighting. dunno what the model. My yellow anememo is doing fine below my tank. it foot stay in one of the hole in my LR.

Maybe my new brown anememo want to escape.

How long have you had it, and how do you define the word fine.... usually i would only say something fine in my tank if it already thriving for ard 8months+ ;););)

rainbow brand????? FL, PL or T5s
