Default What Anemone to get, and where?

Hi Bob, well if I was you I would get a green carpet anemone. I had one for two years and just recently traded it in to my l.f.s. It was not hard to keep and my pink skunk clowns loved it! The female would sleep inside, while the male would rest underneath at the base. I did feed it once a month with a good chunk of brine shrimp or krill. This action was taken because the clowns can be rather greedy when it comes to meal time.I traded in the carpet as it simply outgrew my tank. Now I do not own an anemone instead however my skunks have taken to two new host- a triple crown of pink frogspawn and underneath two frags of hammer coral. I would get another carpet if I was planning a anemone/clown combo only, but any other case-no way as it's just not worth loosing a favorite fish to a hungry carpet. And yes, Joyce's book "clownfishes" is a must have for anyone who wants to keep anemones or clownfish.
