Lineage comes from Elite Reef. This one is massive! Nearly 7” wide when open!
Anemones have sweeper tentacles that can harm organisms around it. They require moderate to high lighting (PAR 150-250) with moderate to high flow. When adding them to your tank it is best to turn off powerheads for at least 30 min to allow the anemone to settle in. They will relocate themselves as they are sessile organisms. They will accept a number of foods such as powder foods, meaty foods like mysis, krill, and brine shrimp. Anemones can self propagate under stress or overfeeding and will split themselves in half.
We do NOT recommend putting this anemone in the same tank with other bubble tip species.
