Novice Owner of a New Sebae

Once they're established, just a few minutes. But, when they are out of practice, it takes several minutes.

So, it's looking a lot better, super anchored, it's eaten a few times, it once crawled (not fell) out of the rock and onto the sand where it sat for about a day anchored just at the edge of the rock and sand, but climbed back up into the crevice that evening.

It seems to be growing really fast.

Coloration is good. Is it staying attached?

 

[Xanthus]

Oh yeah, it's super attached. I also got rid of the bigger trouble-maker crabs and picked up some cerith snails to replace them. It's been eating well about once a week, and it's staying happy-looking.

 

[garygb]

Great to hear. It just takes crispas a while to settle in sometimes it seems.

Hey Xanthus, it's been a couple of months now, how about an update of your anemone? I read this thread from start to finish and want to hear all about her now.

Xanthus,
It looks like you got a H. malu instead of a H. crispa. I came to this conclusion becasue your anemone looks like it is small and hav emuch lower tentacle count than the usual Crispa.

Here is a picture of my Malu. I will also re post the picture of Gary's Crispa for comparison purposes

Your anemone (I think is a Malu)
