What does everyone feed their sebaes??

 

[myxsptlk]

I used to feed it whole fresh shrimp and/or mussel, but it started growing too fast. I don't feed it anything at all now, just gets whatever floats past it when I feed the fish and it is doing fine

 

[A1ramsey]

Lol that's awsome,cause I tried krill with mine and it wouldn't take it..

i feed mine brine shrimp but not to often anymore because my onyx clown started hosting it and i think it eats its left overs. what color is urs

 

[A1ramsey]

White as can be with perty blue tips... Yours? Also if I get a pink or orange skunk clown do u think it would host it?

table shrimp or fresh squid from the seafood counter, once to twice a week. i perforate the morsel well keeping it in one piece to facilitate digestion.

i corral the fish to the other end and partition with plastic eggcrate so it can completely consume the morsel without the fish using it for a soccer match lol.

my purple sebae is ~8"-9" and i've had it for a little over two years, was the size of a scallop.

i essentially target feed the fish, have mostly sps corals and don't feed my tank. the anemone with out a doubt would've died if i didn't keep the fish away and target feed it.

you have a bleached anemone and i would wait until it colors up some before adding clownfish.

H. crispa sebae anemone is a natural host to pink skunk A. akallopisos and orange skunk A sandaracinos and they will associate with a sebae.

Thanks for the info marc, luckily I have no fish in my tank (for now) but I know how hard bit is to feed any nem with fish around lol.. Ill use your method when I do get fishys in there though..

That's weird cause I've seen so many sebaes that are white so I thought that was their normal color? Wow that suck what color should it be?

 

[Toddrtrex]

Yea, it is too bad, but many Sebaes are sold when they are white, which isn't a healthy state.

While there are color morphs, the most common would be a cream/brown color. Granted this is an LTA, this is the color I am talking about --- with slight variations being fine, just as long as it isn't white (( or even yellow for that matter, I would say that 99% of yellow Sebaes are dyed. ))

 

[A1ramsey]

Wow well now I know its bleached I wondering if I should keep it now... Does anyone know what the chances of it turnin back to its normal are..
