That tube anemone thread . . . .

[Clarkii01]

Hey Everyone! I was just wondering if any of you have had any experience with tube anemones. I have two giant ones, and i'm looking to learn more about them. I've had them for over a year now. Post lots of pictures! Thanks!

arent they notorious fish killers?

 

[Clarkii01]

I have not had any problems with them. I just think my fish have developed enogh common sense to stay away from them.

How much room do they have in the tank? How deep is your substrate? What lighting do you have? Do they bother other corals/fish/inverts? Do you spot feed them?

And of course....pics?

They have a lot of room in the tank. My substrate covers them up to the tenticles them selves so that just the crown is sticking out. I have jsut a little under 600w of PC lighting over the tank. Ya I occasionaly spot feed them mysis but I mostly just use filter feeding invert food because they are filter feeders, and no they dont bother any of my tank inhabitants. I'll work on some pictures too.

i read in a clownfish book that they will eat a clownfish and any small fish.

They will eat them if they can get their tenticles on them but most any fish has the common sense to stay away from them.
