blueheaven Posted July 31, 2005 Share Posted July 31, 2005 Anemones are really difficult to keep unless you have good water quality and good lights. I suggest you do not try anemones until your water parameters improve and read up more about them Quote But if you tame me, we shall need each other. To me, you will be unique in all the world.

blueheaven Posted July 31, 2005 Share Posted July 31, 2005 Its clownfish FYI Anyway, anemones do not explode for no apparent reason Most likely it just waste away The only creature I have seen exploding are sea apples Quote But if you tame me, we shall need each other.

NavIgatoR Posted July 31, 2005 Share Posted July 31, 2005 hhaha wonders wat do sea apple usually eat till when they explode the smell comes in a fusion fuHHHhh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueheaven Posted July 31, 2005 Share Posted July 31, 2005 They do not eat till they explode I think its their way of evisceration when they eject all their toxic organs to scare off predators Quote But if you tame me, we shall need each other.

SRC Member dleecool Posted August 1, 2005 SRC Member Share Posted August 1, 2005 and they stink like nobody business... Yes, strongly agree with Bro Alvin.

blueheaven Posted August 1, 2005 Share Posted August 1, 2005 do black sea cuke 'explode' too? thinking of getting one. will it trampalize my zoos and mushies on the sand? Black sea cukes do not eviscerate as exaggerated as the sea apples but when stressed, they do eject some blue threads or worse, the whole of their gut But do not worry about corals as their toxin are fish targetted and would not really affect the corals. Curiously, mine has eviscerated 3 time with no casualties Quote But if you tame me, we shall need each other. To me, you will be unique in all the world. To you, I shall be unique in all the world...
