Does anyone know of the longest kept anemone, besides mushroom anemones. I'm just curious. As stated in another thread other places seem to hammer you for even considering keeping one, yet I and many others in this club have kept them for years. I have had a Saddle Carpet for over 5 years.

I have had a GReen bubble tip for over a year and half and it is still alive

Also I have a friend that has a regular long tenticle that he has had for 2 + years, it splits every 4 months or so.

I feel that with the proper care you can not only keep them but they can thrive in captivity.

IMO they fair far better then most fish.
