Decided to give a bubble tip another shot. Ive had my tank a few years since my last attempt which failed. Yesterday i got a very nice bubble tip from my local store, and acclimated him over a couple of hours. My coral thrive, my parameters and lighting is great. I put him in on a rock that looked similar to that he was on at the store. Overnight while i slept, he crawled down to the subtrate, and basically died. He seems inside out and like hes already starting to decay. How did it go so south within a couple of hours when every other thing in the reef is thriving? It was seriously only a few hours

Hey Brock, love the channel; been watching for a while now. I have a green bubble tip anemone in my UNS 40C. I've been feeding him Mysis Shrimp and Reef Roids every couple of days under a HIPARGERO 30W light. Anything you would recommend changing, or is the light and feeding fine? Thanks!

Jeffrey An I would keep doing what you’re doing! I bet the anemone is really healthy and happy! :)

Can you do a video about how to get a clownfish to host an anemone?

From my experience the Anemones we keep in our tanks wont sting you if you gently touch them. However, when stressed they will sting you not only on the ends of the tips but also through the venom in there mucus. In rarer cases when its under "extreme" trauma even just slightly touching it can cause excruciating pain. I recommend wrinse and rub the effected area under vigorous tap water immediately. They will move around the aquarium until they find a comfortable position depending on two main factors i have seen, which is flow and the shape of the rock it is attatched too. My two cents worth, cool video man 😁

How should I located my anemone if I have corals in all my rock? You said they move around, so even if I put it in a spot were there's no corals around, the anemone eventual would move, right? I really want to add one of this but I am a little bit afraid its starts to move all around and hurt my corals.

Davinci Reef It’s not that they will move, it’s that there is always a chance. Normally when placed in a spot they can stretch out, they’ll stay there the whole time. It’s just random for when they begin to get in the mood to move.

Rule of thumb, if you can grow coral, you can host anemone. And its hard to say ya or no on light, because water current distortion will play a factor on that as well.

Do You think it true if they are many generations of being aqua cultered that they loose their sting? It makes sense! I also wondered how big the rainbows get?
