    Lol...I still cant believe they pulled it...

    I found this at LiveAquaria.com

    "The Condy Anemone requires strong light and should never be purchased if a good lighting system is not in place. It will do well in an aquarium with live rock and several crustaceans. Although a Condy requires a reef environment, it is not the best suited for the reef aquarium. The Condy Anemone moves around the tank and has a sting that can inflict grave damage to other anemones and corals. Do not include its natural predators such as the Red-Leg Hermit Crab. Unlike other anemones, the Condy Anemone does not have a relationship with any particular fish, and it is rare for any type of clownfish or damsel to reside within them. "

    LTA's = long tentacles, far more dangerous than any other anemone as it can reach longer and sting. Anemones are super hardy and are not that sensitive. But if you want to keep a healthy one, you know the requirements.

    I know somebody that kept 3 anemones with crappy lighting and no spot feeding and god aweful water quality. They withered and died 1 year later. They shrink little by little. I think the LTA he has is still alive, but both small rose bubbles died. Trust me, this should go on record for marine aquariasts... they really took a pounding under the care of this guy so it just goes to show that they can take a lot.
