Haddoni and gbta together?

[danieljames]

I've read through the forum, and i'm seeing it's not the best idea to keep different species of carpets together. Would a single gbta, about 7", be alright with a 12" blue haddoni in an oceanic 58 show? Also, what is the best method of removing a large haddoni from a display?

I currently have a large RBTA and geen Haddon in a 180gal. Both are doing fine. They are at opposite ends of the tank though...

I think there are more cases where keeping a BTA with a carpet anemone is more of a problem than keeping different carpet anemones together.
The exception to this might be keeping the Atlantic carpet S. helianthus with one of the Pacific species.
Removing a large Haddon's anemone from a display is not easy.
Try teasing the foot up with a credit card or finger nail. If it's foot is attached near/under a rock you'll probably need to (carefully) remove the rock. If you have fishes in the same aquarium (other than Clownfish) you should remove them.
The slime and/or nematocysts shed by a stressed anemone can wipe out all of the fishes in the same aquarium.
