sebae anemone.

first off lets start out on the right foot.

i do NOT have one nor will i be getting one anytime soon due to their extreme death rate. i read the sebae anemone care on the top of the invert page. just wondering what everybody thinks.

who has one
who has had one
how long have you had it?

just wondering. i still need a lot of stuff for my tank (equipment) before i will buy anything live (trading doesnt count ) for my tank. i was just wondering what everybody thought about them.

 

I had one and he moved around too much for my liking. He ended up in the back of my reef and I had to move the rocks to get him out. I'd stay away. They are for certain tanks only IMO.

 

ok what about carpet nems. i know they get big but they are really colorful.

 

I had one. It died and wiped out my entire tank with it. I personally wont ever keep anemones in a community reef tank, let alone sebaes, which are about the most difficult and demanding of them all.

 

I don't understand why anyone would want one they are the most unapealing visually. I keep a lta and it's great

 

I have one and its been a little over a year now. Its about 6 inches and its hosts two of my clowns. It didnt move around too much when I put it in the tank. I have never had a problem with it.

 

alright so thats helpful. ad yea they arent that appealing really. id rather have a colorful nem like a carpet. i like the shorter tentacles on the nems personally.

 

I had one and absolutely loved it. It settled into it's spot after just a day or 2 and never moved again. I never had any care issues with it.

 

what happened to it?

 

My light busted and due to finances I wasn't able to replace it immediately. My tank then crashed and all the coral and my nem died. I learned my lesson. Next time, I buy whatever I need that day. Definitely wasn't worth it.
