i dunno..i thought it was a haddoni carpet anemone

It doesn't look like any of the Haddonis that I have. I wouldn't mind being wrong, but I really would be surprised if it was a Haddoni.

By the way, it could take a very long time before your clowns take an interest. Mine waited a year before they figured it out.

its a carib carpet anemone. Not friendly to clown fish by any means.... Id return it if nemo wants to fight to see tomorrow.

Supposedly the anemone had a host clown at the fish store. If that's the case, then it might be a haddonis no?

You're on though, if that's a carribean anemone, it'll eat the poor clowns.

I wouldn't use it hosting a clown as a means for an ID -- heck, Condy's aren't hosting anemones either, and once in a while will see them hosting clowns.

That's an Atlantic carpet. A real bad guy. I'd rather have aiptasia.
