My growing anemone collection

[Delphinus]

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.

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
