    My LFS just received a beautiful Ritteri anemone...
    I love it! White w/ purple glowing tips. 5 clown fish instanty took to it.

    My question: Is this a difficult species to keep? I failed in my mission to keep a carpet anemone... However, my tank is old, wiser since then.

    I also just purchased zoo frags... and don't want to lose them.
    Any thoughts?

    From the tank description in your sig I would not recommend that type of anemone. They can get up to 36" across in the wild and at least 18" in your tank. Other than that they seem to be a pretty standard anemone. 4-6 watts per gallon and medium to high current.

    I don't see any reason you should loose your zoo frags. You definately have enough light for them.
