Nice tank. Interesting placement of tank.

Do you have a powerhead in your tank? That is required to bring air circulation in your tank.

There is see a lot more space for corals.

Healthy anemones normally will have a tanned look. Brown-green..depending on the amount of zooxanthellae they house. Once these become expelled, the anemone starts turning white. Usually quite bad news from there onwards.....

But tot this one is white purple bubble tip...

Anemones should have some 'colour' in them.... mostly green or brown, although some come in shades of paler colours.

I am not too sure about yours, if its bleached or just pale.. although I suspect it may be bleached.

Don't be mistaken, the tips or outer skin can exhibit flourescent colours but we are talking about the body colour of the main stalk or the polyps.

Its the photosynthetic zooxanthelae cells in them that gives the colour.

When an anemone is stressed (probably heat-related), it may expel the zoozanthelae cells and when it then becomes 'empty'... the body will look pale white or even transparent. Same thing goes for corals who exhibit this same symptoms.

Bleached corals and inverts do look nice due to the pale colours but in reality, they are actually in danger.

With no more energy coming from the symbiotic photosynethetic algae, the bleached anemone will need supplementary feeding of meaty foods till they colour up back again over time.

We both said the same thing but I guess I am always the long-winded one!
