WDLV,
I love all of your anemones.Did you start out with one in 1 tank then as it split you just moved it to every other tank .Also did I see a seabea anemone in that tank?If so do you not get cehimcal war far.It may be a bubble tip but not for sure.

Fishkid6692,
Thats seems to be a very healthy anemone.How long have you had it.

Fishkid6692,

The crispa died shortly befor I shut the tank down. I had a 210 display that I took down in Feb 2008 so I could focus on clowns and anemone propagation. I am trying my darndest not to buy or barter for any anemones that do not reproduce asexually. I saw a nice mertensii yesterday and had to use a lot of self restraint not to buy it.
I currently run 8-16 tanks at any given time ranging from 10 gallons with clown pairs to 100 gallon rubbermaid stock tanks hooked in tandem. I'm seriously contemplating setting up a 1000-1500 gallon pond tank in the next few months so I can consolidate a little. I don't want to set up anything too nice 'cause i don't want to have to tear it down and replace it when I move in a few years.

I currently have:
5 varieties of BTAs
1 pink with purple base H. mag
numerous ocellaris and percula clowns of different color varients
4 leucokranos
1pr latezonatus
1pr thiellei/sandaracinos
2 nigripes
1 lone sandaracinos in the leuc tank
1pr barberi
1pr ephippium
a 14YO ocellaris with young mate
and a few tomato/cinnamon hybrids

You say you have 5 species of Entacmaea Quadricolor I hope you dont mind me asking but Iv only heard of 3 or 4 colors or the Bubble Tip anemones.So what other ones do you have?

 

[fishkid6692]

i've only heard of 2 ha. red and green.

 

[WDLV]

Oops! I must have been counting my mag. I only have four types.

6 RBTA with green base

1 brown with orange tips (currently recovering after bout with powerhead)

4 green

1 green with white bulbs

 

[fishkid6692]

white bulbs would meen it's bleached.

 

[clowns101]

Not true. It seems to be more of a white pigment than a lack of zoanthellae. This trait is seen commonly in the wild among healthy specamins.
If they're going to bleach, they usually bleach all over or at least in segments.

 

[clowns101]

i think you mean like the one on live aquaria that was a foot in diameter for 90 bucks!
