Urgent Wild Collected Anemones

Yes they are very good images!

Were they that pale cream color when you collected them?

What temp is your tank running at?

 

Thanks, and yes this is their original coloration. I saw some other big warties that were white instead of greenish brown but i was unable to get them. However, my small warty is a creamy white so maybe i'll get lucky and it will stay white as it grows.

 

my thermometer is busted but when i stick my fingers in the tank, it is about room temp, it doesn't feel cold or warm

 

do you think i could get a small percula to host that big one? it seems very cozy and ive seen clowns host proportionately smaller anemones

 

no clown will host those nems they are not suitable, they are atlantic and clowns are in the pacific.

 

arent condys carribean?

 

+1 to warty nems, feed them silversides or chopped small bits of fish, just drop it on to them. They are photosynthetic I heard maybe...but I have kept them alive for years under weak lighting and the occasional (once a week?) feeding. Very hardy anemone.

this anemone wont host the clown, would eat him instead, same for a condy (yep the Caribbean), or at least that is my impression. Frogspawns are pretty easy hosts for clowns I think depending on your setup

 

im planning on building a t5 2 bulb 48" custom canopy fixture for my 55

 

I had to ask, you said that you still have the ray on hand and in the video it is the same tank, where are you keeping the ray until you get rid of it?

 

you would need more light then a 2 bulb for a nem
