High calcium and anemones

[upin]

Hi Guys, I'm planning to build an SPS dominant aquarium, but I'm also thinking of having an anemone in the aquarium, most probably would be RBTA is it possible?

I heard from a friend before that soft corals would be affected by high calcium parameter, how about anemones? will they be able to grow and survive well?

Thanks

If you ignore the fact that the RBTA may/will wander around, having the calcium around 400-450 will have no adverse effects on the anemone.

And I don't see how anything would be bothered by having a calcium level near/at natural levels.

I've been keeping anemones (( LTAs, BTAs, and Haddoniis )) at those levels for years without any issues.

I've kept a couple of rbtas for several years in 490ppm calcium without a problem. They do like to move though and will sting neighboring corals.

Thanks guys! well, I should be worrying about the other livestock than the rbta then.

I'll post some picture when I get one of the rbta.

Cheers
