    I have had those three anemones for years they are curly q very pretty blue and tan and they have never split. Aiptasia anemones are a completely different species and also there are several hundred different species. Our concern is of the glass variety, most other ones are harmless and naturally grow in and among SPS and other corals without detrimental effects to their health. Thanks guys for the comments, thought i'd feature it before the year is up.

    Thanks Guitarman see you have a coral beauty to aren't they great!

    NorCalGuy I'll take a picture of them soon I have one in my album hiding in my long tentacle anemone cute little guys.

    Ady- thanks a lot!

    Coralline/2in10- rock work is compliments of Marco Rocks although it arrived dead as known when purchased this is some of the best rock for aquascaping. Very light weight porous strong and oh so many holes for copepods. Might wanna think about getting some for a future project :)
