Caring for Rose Anemones the right way

BTA Rose Anemone

I found this beautiful LTA at a local
fish store and boy was I happy to add him to my
125 gallon tank.
He was 4 inches across when I bought him.
After a few months he is now a whopping 12 inches across
and has developed the customary curl at the end of his
Tentacles.
He lives with my Rose Anemones but is not in
contact with any of them.
He grabs up whole Silversides every time I feed him
which is 2 times a week.
Here he is when I first bought him.

AND NOW
See him  in his very own movie.
Click the below link.
See in the movie how curly his tenticles are now.
He is so beautiful.
And while you are there, see the other two movies
that I have made, they are short so as to
save space at photobucket but are kind of fun
to see.

An updated picture of this beautiful Anemone.
She has regained her natural color and also the curls on the ends
of her tentacles.
She is now about 12" across when fully open and I have had
to move many zoos and polps out of her way.


And my new addition.
This gorgeous LTA.
When fully open she is around 12" across and is
eating 3 Silversides at a feeding.

She is a bit bleached and doesn't have her curly tentacles yet
but will in a few weeks as she recovers.




Another Updated picture of him.

And the next picture you can see her brother? and two BTA's that are
within touching distance.
But they get along just fine.
