Getting ready to purchase my first anenome. Should it be quarantined? If so, how long? Do the get dipped like corals? Your advice would be appreciated.
Deep reef, the Nems really don't need to be QT'ed, but it is wise to QT everything that enters your system. They inflate with water which could bring ICH into your system, but that is very rare.
They do not need to be dipped like corals.
What kind of NEM are you wanting to get? How long has your tank been running?
120 Dt, 40 gal sump, kole tan, 2 picasso clowns, a ywg/pistol shrimp, K cardinal, 2 yellow tail chromis and a possum wrasse in qt for 2 more weeks. Corals I have 3 riccordia, a candycane, favia, (4) disk coral will be hoping to trade when they are a little bigger, a lobo and a cyrnarina coral

If you get a rose bubble tip anemone, place it far from your corals
The first 72 hours it will probably move around untill it finds a spot it likes.
Keep close watch some like high flow and will try to get too close to your power heads .
I've lost several this way. Until I got foam guards.
