I've lost two seahares to mine. 2-3 days after being put in they find the mini carpet and that's the end of that.

Pretty colours though!

They all starting bleaching around the two week mark for me. There are alot of people that have had success with these. Just keep in mind they are a low light anemone. In my main tank they were under 14K 250W halides.

It's possible . I still have 5 . I did loose one to a power head. when I first got them. There are three in my frag tank and two in my main tank in the shade . None of them have shown any hint of there colour comming back.

They are one of the easiest anemone to frag or cut. The handle it well and fully heel with in a month so I have read.

+1 mine is under the same lighting and has been in a few places in the tank and never lost any colour.

That's weird...I'm wondering if putting one in a different tank would change things. If you have a buddy with a tank maybe place one in there and see what happens.
