Sebae Anemone.

I know they are bleached when you first get them. Question is how long does it take for them to gain there true tan color?
The light's are 3 10K and 3 450nm.
It is a 6 bulb t-5 so the light's are good to go. It is not white but show's a kind of light greenish (neon) color to it. Maybe the lighting that makes it look kind of greenish. Is it coming back or is there something else going on. It will not eat. It did eat about half a cube of krill last week but hasnt eaten since. Coldshot say's it does'nt look like it is dying and the water smell's fresh but is the color consistent with its coming back?
I cant use the cam good enough to get an accurate picture.

 

How long have you had it? Is it sticky to the touch? I think mine took about two months to regain full color.

 

It is sticky a little but not alot. It had its foot stuck on a rock a few days ago but settled down on bottom. It has been here about 5 day's. So I will keep an eye on it. So what if it isnt sticky whats that say?

 

Can you post a fresh picture of your's for color camparison? They are very pretty animals after they regain there true color. and it diesnt seem to fill the tentacles out very much. kind of skinny.thnx

 

That's a very good sign that it's already settling into a spot. It may just be a little too stressed to eat this soon after moving. That may be why it's not sticky. The deflated tentacles is completely normal, so I wouldn't worry about that. It sounds like you have done everything right. Anemones are always the luck of the draw unfortunately. Some seem to be doomed before they even make it to our tanks. All you can really do is be properly equipped and watch closely.

Good luck I hope it does well.

 

Thnx bro thats a cool lookin dude there. Maybe after he is settled in I will try a clown. thnx again.

 

If you do try a clown, sebae seem to jump right in, wild caught percs jump in and captive bread percs have no idea what it even is. I haven't had any experience with any other types.

 

Do I have to order the wild caught online. I know my LFS will lie for a sell so wheres the best palce for me to get one from?
Here is how he is looking now. And thnx for the help.

 

Looks about how they usually come in. Ordering online probably would be the best way to get live caught. Like you said you never know with most LFS.

 

The first day I had him he opened up really large like 6 inches across and now he stays kinda shrunk. So I guess he will be good to go. thnx Mike.
God Bless.......
