Anemone Nitrate Limit

Not that i'm getting one for months yet but was just curioue what is the nitrate's max level before the anemone gets effected is it round 10-ppmor can it take more & whats ideal?

 

as low as possible and very consistent, be religious about checking and changing the water their very touchy creatures

 

That is the truth. I've been trying to get my tank squared away for about 2 weeks now to keep my long tail from shriveling up.

 

I dont know exactly to what extent they will survive, but my No3 is always at 20ppm and my LTA and Flower anemones are just fine. Look at my video and see. Luna

 

Nice plug of the video Luna. hehehe! Look at mine first!!! :O)

 

yeah my anenome in my nano and my 58g are both from the same tank they are both splits from the same parent and are about 6 months apart in age, the one in the 58g is always around 15ppm and the nano I haven't seen a trace of nitrates since it finished it's initial cycle, their both strong and healthy and the one in the nano when it was given to me was nearly dead, no color and wouldn't eat at all, after about 2 weeks of babying it now it's one of the best looking RBTA's I think I've ever seen, no offense but I've gotten alot of compliments on it too thats just boosted my ego on it even more lol

One of my fav pics of it

 

for awhile my NO3 was up 30 ppm and my BTA hand no problems, he seems happier now its low but it doesnt go below 10-15 ppm. i think you might be able to add one

 

ok cheers guys and iraf that is a nice looking anemone i want it lol...

 

Nitrates are not toxic and will not have many negative implications unless exceedingly high, and then often times is is just a spur of unwanted aglgae growth.
Corals, clams, anemones, filter feeders and other livestock will feed on nitrates!

 

It's getting huge and I think it's starting to develop a 2nd oral disk so I may have a split soon, I'll keep you guys up on it
