Hi Marie

Like your corals, your anemone collection are fantastic.


Tom R

Thanks Tom, I figured since I was doing such a good job of raising majanos and aiptasia I should try my hand at more challenging anemones :lol: .

Now if only I could find a red, blue or purple carpet nem

Very nice! One day I will try my hand at a nem but right now I'm trying to get my SPS collection started.

Oooh, purdy. :)

Very nice! Is the RBTA new?

I've had it 10 days now, it only decided to come out from behind the rocks a couple of days ago. I think it found my lights too bright :mrgreen:

Great photos. What size tank are they in?

They're in a 48x18x18, 65g tank

Just curious, what lighting do you have over that tank?

wow purdy! I really like that first tube anemone. Curious, I always thought they were true anemones... are they not technically classified in the same place as true anemones?

edit: nevermind, I answered my own question. They are in class Hexacorallia rather than Anthozoa.

Or all 3 :)

I have 2 175w 15k iwasakis

Another new addition, it's a purple tube anemone. I'm going to have to rearrange the rocks to make more room for these guys

He's in training at the moment, he arrived without a tube so the rock is pinning him down until he builds himself a new tube

Hey Marie...didn't OceanicCorals get in a red carpet anemone???? You could add that to your gorgeous collection!

I thought about it but I don't think I have the room for another large anemone...

Wow missed this before some nice anemones you have great pictures too.

I had a red and a blue carpet...but the tank was too new, and I lost them both....were they ever gorgeous though.....I miss them....but I totally understand..they are LARGE when they are happy!

wow marie, love the collection especially the purple one!!
