    I'm concerned about my anemone because it has shrunk and doesn't show it tentacles anymore. I bought it a few weeks ago on Nov.28 but after I did a water change it never came back out. It's been over a week and now isn't attached to anything and looks like its dying. Here is a picture...

    I want to get a bubble anemone for my clarkii clown, or any anemone in my 5 month old reef tank My concern is the lighting, I have a full spectrum led light with a few corals in the tank, I just gave away my condy anemone because it rarely opened up, it was first white when I got it and it...

    Hey guys! Ive been wanting an anemone for a while. I currently have a Biocube 14. For lighting I have a 70w Sunpod Metal Halide (with an ecoxotic stunner strip attached as well). For flow I have the stock return pump (I just use it for surface agitation) and a fluval sea (265 gph) circulation...

    Hi everyone. My condy anemone just shrunk up to nothing, all I did was add a waving hand coral. Is this normal? The nem has been thriving for over a month

    Hey guys, I picked up a condy anemone about a month ago. Since adding him to my tank, he's taken on a beautiful light greenish tint to his tentacles and has found a spot he seems to like. The problem is that it's at the bottom of my tank. Tank specs are as follows. 100 gallon display with 35...

    Today I purchased a small condy anemone for my 20 gallon nano tank. I was told it does not sting and is one of the easier anemones to care for. But I now am home with it and am hearing horror stories if things gone wrong. I also do not have reef lighting for the fish store told me I did not need...

    My lights just turned off and I did my routine check. Suddenly I noticed an eye within the anemone. I realized that it was my scooter blenny that must have gotten too close. My condy is currently digesting part of the skin that was ripped off when I pulled the blenny out. I tend to overfeed my...

    It just hides under this rock it looks fine and I can get to it to feed it just fine, it has moved twice and both times has ended up underneth a rock just enough to get some light, but what the heck, I dont think my lights are to much, I have 6 54w T5's that are about 10 inches from the surface...

    So this morning when I left for work it looked fine and happy in this spot, it's been 3 days I think and it still hasn't attached to anything now it seems that it has just fallen over, there doesn't seem to really be anything wrong with it visually but should I pick it or should I leave it alone...

    So I know it will move where it wants to be but is there anywhere I should try to put it or should I just plop it on in there? The place that I put it doesn't have much flow at all, should I move it where there's more flow or leave it where it is now and let it find where it wants to be?

    I bought this anemone about 2 months ago and it has changed to a pink-purple color. I bought it for 7 dollars so if it is a condy then no big deal, I am just wondering if there is a possibility it is something else. Any ideas welcome. Thanks for the help. :nixon:

  14. Anemones
    I went to the lfs today hoping to get either a second maroon clown or a bubble tip anemone. . . buuuuuuut.... somehow I ended up choosing a condy instead. Once I got home I read that these nems don't get along too well with coral and are more likely to move around and eat my fish. They are also...

    Hi guys! I haven't been on here in a while cause I thought I was going to get rid of my salt water tank, but have decided to keep it and keep trying. I bought a Condy Anemone today and would like to know what you guys feed it and how often? I fed it Mysis Shrimp just now and it seemed to love...

    I have recently aquired a condy anemone and it is doing very well so far (been in the tank about 12 hrs) and is showing no signs of distress. I have a cleaner shrimp that is "playing" with the anemone. He keeps coming to the anemone and touching it with his antennas, I have even seen him walking...

    Today we were looking at our salt water tank and the cleaner shrimp came up top of my rock and started picking at my pipe organ and pulled little pieces off for a meal. The pipe organ quickly closed up and has not reopened but is this normal? Why is my cleaner shrimp eating this poor coral...

    OK, some more ID help please. I found these unknown worms and thought they were Bristle Worms. But the consensus from the other thread is they are not not, but probably bad none the less. Possibly Euchnids Sp.?? So any help and removal idea's would be greatly appreciated. Thank-you Joe
