Advice on Heteractis Crispa

[Winwood]

I was merely stating it because the traditional clarkii complex is misleading when you try and draw similarities between its members. I don't believe a species affinity or lack there of to a particular anemone species should be applied as a means of identifying anemones, especially when it comes to this complex.

And I was simply making an observation... I don't feel anyone should be criticized for this, it is ridiculous. I am not a marine biologist in any shape or form, and therefore need not be entirely concerned with what said fish belongs to one complex or another. I am aware that clarkii complex will host just about everything. I thought since the chrysopterus were wild caught, they might have a stronger "preference" of one anemone species over others. The reason for the post was to simply gather opinions of fellow forum members on what species of anemone I have.

My intentions were not to criticize. I was just trying to add information to the thread I felt was pertinent. I apologize if my comments came off otherwise.
