cerianthes

[Kigs]

anyone have any good experiences with cerianthes anenome? how are they with inverts + fish?

Some people report them stinging or killing fish, though I have not observed a strong enough sting for this. They can sting other inverts, though. The difficult thing with Cerianthids is that you must obtain a healthy one to begin with, as well as being diligent when feeding them. They should be fed often with smaller meaty foods.

yeah. i love my shrimps in my tank. i don't want them to get eaten or what not.

they have one of the most potent stings I've seen. Mine cuts thru discosoma and rhodactis shrooms in about an hour. my kenya tree survived the ordeal but was closed up for days.
