ID please... picture included.

[TAF]

Any IDs on this one?

I dont think that its a Corallimorph... it looks to me to be a flower or rock anemone. They are native to the carribean and pretty easy to care for.

 

[ScooterBlenny]

I second the anenome ID...I one until just recently and I loved it!

 

[TAF]

Oh!

So is this thing going to get super giant then?

 

[GoingPostal]

They don't get huge but maybe 7-8" across easily is the largest I've seen so far, I'm sure they get a little bigger than that but not going to take over your tank or anything. They do move like nems do to find a spot.

 

[TAF]

Oh... so he is going to have to move out of my small tank and into the large one.

Is this pretty purple with green tips common?

 

[Don-Coraleone]

mini carpet. maybe

 

[TAF]

mini carpet... as in 'stays small' or mini carpet as in 'small right now'... don't carpets get really big?

 

[JMCAquarium]

it's a carpet nem or rock nem what ever you want to call them most get no more then 4-5 inches and spread pretty well. looks to be a pretty color watch them some people consider them as bad as aptaisia

 

[TAF]

This pretty thing? I sure hope it spreads that well.

 

[ScooterBlenny]

Ha, if it starts spreading, send me a few! Mine never did spread:-(

 

[TAF]

Hummm... maybe they need a male and female?

 

[arre]

[frenchie]

rock anenome i have one almost just like it been about 4 inches for a year now.

 

[frenchie]

[TAF]

It sure is a little piggy. I feed it a few little pellets each day and it loves them.

Any special care I should know about?

 

[frenchie]
