yay! I love this game!
ok the "purple one" those range in different colors from brown to red, they are very sticky, usually tend to be nocturnal but can be trained otherwise, beautiful anemone, the foot is covered with small projections making it apear almost fuzzy, ill have the Sci. name for ya later, but its common name is the red wart anemone.
their is a few other anemone's local to florida that match that discription. one is called the sun anemone, its small, colonial because it splits like crazy, lol. color tends to vary from gray to golden brown, and from the rim inward towards the mouth are yellow/gold stripes which give it its name.
also dont forget, aiptaisa is a local anemone, lol
ill try to get some photos of of other local possible species, but for the two mentioned i have had both, here are photos.
sun anemone eating coral banded! i was not happy that morning......
and heres two photos of the red wart anemone, notice how it hangs under the rocks, it didnt like the light, and at night would double in size
Can you buy Red Wart Anemones or collect them anywhere? I think they look awesome!!!
