    Hi all, this is my first post on 3Reef!

    I was just wondering what popular anemones I could get for my 30 gallon tank? I feel like my ocellaris clownfish could use a little home. I will be going to my local fish store to buy one tomorrow, and I am kind of set on the purple bubble tip, but I wanted to ask what others would suggest or what they like the most. Thanks guys!

    There's a lot of things you should consider before buying an anemone and I'm sure others with more experience than I may chime in, but...

    You've the lighting needed? How long's your tank been running? BTA's I believe are of the hardier type, but still are delicate animals and you're water quality needs to be well maintained.

    As of now I have an ocellaris clownfish, turbo snails, hermit crabs, and a few feather dusters and polyps. My lighting is a 50/50. The tank has been running for about 4 months now and the chemistry is near perfect. Thanks
