Two Anemones

[wwest]

does anyone know the possibilities of sticking two anemones together in a 120 gallon swt?

Are they going to be the same type (or cloned even) anemone,
or different kinds?

It is typically not recommended though a lot of people (inluding me) are doing it successfully. If they are both BTA then most people have no trouble as they often live in colonies anyway

I have an LTA and a BTA both in a 72 bow front.

I think the most important things are to have a stable, mature tank and a lot of experience keeping aneones. The only things special I would suggest is to choose animals who are likely to live in different parts of the tank (high vs. low flow or rock vs. sand-dwelling) and run carbon to keep any chemical warfare in check.

probably add another green carpet or a diferent type of carpet.. has a green carpet now.. and the swt has been setup for about 4-5 years right now..

Dantodd said it very well. Generally it's not recomended, but it can be done. I have a Sebae and multiple (clones) GBTA's in my tank. They keep away from each other and I run carbon 24x7. The maturity of the tank is key IMO (beyond lighting and feeding).
