looking for a first anemone

[everl0ng]

i keep reading that most anemones get huge...too huge for my tank. with my stocking list (below), is there any that you would suggest that maybe i could look into? i saw a condy, but they are apparently aggressive and i am sure that most if not all anemones are, but i didn't know if one would be alright in my tank. i have a feeling that a couple of my fish may be too small and may be eaten, so if that is the case i guess an anemone is a no-go. i just wanted to make sure with the people that have experience instead of just reading websites since you never know who makes them.

The condylactis anemone is from the gulf of mexico and carribean which means that they are not natural host anemones.

I think it is possible with the tank you have and the inhabitants. I have, and many other aquarists have come to the general conclusion that the bubble tip anemone (entacmea quadricolor) is the easiest to maintain. There are actually several different color morphs and their care is essentially the same being they are the same species. They are still a bit challenging to keep but I think it is possible in your tank.

I agree with the bubble anemone, although when you get one he will move around and you may have to do rearranging on your corals to keep from anyone getting damaged, If your anemone is well fed he may never eat a fish
