Rose anemones anyone?

BTA's should have great survival from the store, as long as you buy a healthy one.
How old is your tank?
Red coral has a couple real nice ones.

I do not know enough about LTA's to comment on them.

I agree, the ones from the lfs should do well in your tank as long as all your parameters are in check. I just added a purple lta into my tank 2 weeks ago from Ocean Aquatics and it increased in size 4x from what it was in the lfs' tank within the first hour. I also have a 4 month old rbta from JL Aquatics which was browned out at their store, when placed into my tank, it perked up and coloured up within a few days. Now I have a total of 6 anemones that my female clown hosts in, if you were local or coming down to Vancouver, I could offer you one of my bta's in trade but you should really get your water checked at the lfs if anemones are not lasting long.

He is vancouver, so even knowing would do you little good.

Go see Steve at Red Coral, if the ones he gets tomorrow are even half as nice as the ones he had on the weekend they will be amazing.
I think I have 4 or 5 BTA's from Steve now.

Ok, I'll drop by tomorrow to see Steve tomorrow. His store is really nice, lots of nice stuff but I didn't see any BTA last time I was there. Some really nice clams I saw though..

You Vans are so lucky to be so close to J&L and OA
