Anemone?

[kernyboy]

Is it true if they die...they take everything in your tank with them? I'm interested in getting one, but I fear that if it DOES die..it will poison the tank and kill all my livestock. Any suggestions or recs of hardy anemone? thanks

I have had two get stuck in powerhead's and pass on me..... So far everything else is still alive....

no they will not take the tank when they die but sea apples and cucumbers will along with nudi's

 

[kernyboy]

so. which anemones do you recommed?

green or red bubble tip , or long tentical . id stay away from condy's, hatian and tulip anemones the condy and hatian will eat your small fish and snails /hermit crabs and the tulip aka manjo will take over your tank like aptasia, the bta's and Lta's are a good choice if your going to have clowns , the carpet anemomes require a mature tank with stable parims.. and intense lighting. they also tend to move around allot.
