sargassum anemones

[JShearer83]

Does anyone have any experience with sargassum anemones? I just got two. They are about the size of a nickel each. I have 260w of PC light, 2 x 50/50 and 2 x 10k. Is this enough?

How about suppliments?

This is my first attempt with any anemone, so any advice would be helpful. Thanks!!

Anemonia sargassensis. Couldn't find any pictures of it on the web, and very little info. Please post some pictures of yours, would love to see them! I assume they are a colder water nem?

Here is the only pic/drawing I could find on the web, and it is actually pretty close to the real thing. I will try to take a pic of mine when I get home. These actually come from FL, but sargassum algae is pretty widespread on the east coast so they probably have a fairly wide distribution. Check out the link for a close resemblence...
