I am in the long process of finding a couple of different BTA
and
I need some help figuring out which two / three that I want to put in my tanks.
So, I thought a Eye Candy / Show Off Thread
Was in order.

So, if you would.
Post pictures of your
Bubble Tip Anemones

Here's my rose anemone.

How is the project coming along?
Was slowed down when I lost one strain, about 12 nems. I thought it was the system, but it turns out that stain just dies in the tub! I got one more from that mother and it lasted 10 days. The rest are good, I just need to get chopping. The problem now is all the stressed SPS corals I'm babysitting, I don't want to kill them by cutting up a bunch of nems.

Some amazing nem's in here! I've had mine for about 6 months. In the first 3 weeks it split 4 times while moving and trying to adapt. My anemone managed to kill an Acro, severely hurt 2 acans and both my blasto colonies in the first month while it moved and moved and moved trying to find a home. It finally settled and seems to stay put as long as I give it a silverside about every 7-10 days. I purchased it with two little dwarf clowns Mortimer and Milo, both of which are doing great!
I think my nem would like a little more light based on it's position and resting place but I got what I got for now.

By the way Both Acan's and Blasto's are recovering well and growing as quickly as ever. I just had to protect/shield them for a few weeks and fed them like crazy. All is well now and eveyone's getting along.
