Anemones

I'm far from being an accomplished reefer, but I put 2 Rose bubble tips in my 80 about a month ago and they both split, so now I have four of them!  I would say that you're ok to try your hand at one if your water parameters are good and you have enough lighting to make them happy.  From what I've read, BTA's need a lot of light.  I can't confirm if this is true or not, but mine are quite happy with the 500 watts of MH lighting and 220 watts of Actinics that I provide them with.

I have a 125 thats been set up a few months.  All of the Live sand, Live Rock, water came from the old tanks, SPS and Soft corals came from these tanks as well.  There really wasnt a "cycling" event to speak of.  Ammonia went up a notch but was barely measurable a few days later.  Nitrites, Nitrates...Big goose egg there.  A majority of my filtration is from a 6 week old Mangrove refugium.  Lighting....there is enough to land a 747 at LAX!  Halides and VHO's with one NO actinic blue.  @1100 watts altogether.

I know these are some pretty tough customers to keep, I am just wondering if I really have a decent chance with one.  I am not by any means set on getting one, but it sure is tempting to be sure.  Dont have jack for fish, just a few, I am mainly into the coral thing.

Yeah I know what you mean...Its addicting, huh?  And I thought crack was a bad addiction all this time!  At least this (reefs) looks much better!!!

You can often find some that are aobut the size of a silver dollar, I suggest trying one of these. I've kept a haddon's carpet alive for a few years. It is still doing well, the only bad thing about these guys is that they eat fish. I've tryed four anemones and have only one die, and that one was a gigantea. Oh and I have tube anemones as well but they are not good in your main tank if you have a lot of fish.

If you favor coral as much as you say you do, take note of Ryan Footes experience with losing his favorite coral to the stings of a traveling anemone. If not pushed around by a clown (appropriate name, don't you think!) it moves around on it's own, looking for just the right spot, probably next to a nice purple tipped acro or a red/green brain, much to your dismay when one or both die.
On the other hand, if watched and given wide berth before the tank is full of coral it can be a pleasant sight. You may want to consider the Rock Flower Anemone. It moves around much less and finds it's spot without getting in the way so much. Unfortunately Anemonefish don't typically take to it.
