Tube anemones...
First they are NOT an anemone, they are a worm and they live in the tube that you see... All the nice colors is its mouth similar to a feather duster... They don't foot themselves and then move, they crawl like a worm. They can abandon their tube and make another, this takes a lot of energy from them though. Their sting is generally not as much as people claim...... They do have a sting but it's not usually a problem. I think the sting is mild - I have never had anything go missing due to the TA. One thing I will say is that I don't put corals near it, just don't want to take any chances.... My yellow leather gets rubbed by it and I should move it back a bit as it doesn't like the TA - this is my only complaint with the TA ... Mine eats out of the water column - brine and mysis... The tenacles pull food into the mouth. My understanding is that the purple ones like the temp of the water a bit cooler or hotter (can't remember). They will live in 77-78 but their lives will be shortened cause of it. I've had mine a year and its great. Only eats what I feed. Doesn't move around and my maxi minis live all around it. My 2 RBTAs live just above it. No anenome issues at all. I might just be lucky but that's my contribution here... Last edited by hfp75; 09-24-2013 at 06:52 AM.

That one killed two of my fish. And when i was cleaning the glass it stung my arm and believe me it hurts. It left red bumps all over my arm. IMO they look sweet but are a pain to keep in a reef tank because of the long swaying stingers. They get huge.

I've had mine for about a year now , one purple and one pink. I've never fed mine and they are just as bright as they were when I got them. I would say they have grown very little in the last year.
