Re: anenome?

What kind of lighting do you have?
It is going to be very difficult to keep any anemone in that small of a tank. They require high light and a well established stable system. If you are looking for something to host the clowns, try some lps or soft corals. They will often host in those and they are easier to keep.

I agree Anenomes are one of the more difficult things to keep, up there with SPS. My clowns host in a big sinularia leather I have.

Re: anenome?

Not only are they hard to keep, they will nuke the whole tank if they die. Scorched earth.
