Even tho i hv 3 carpets in the tank

3 carpets in ur tank bros, how big is ur tank?

carpets will tend to grow VERY big

if not wrong, carpet is 1 of the more aggressive anemone around

and will TRY to eat anything in its path.

cheers

Carpet anemones are notorious for eating other fishes in the tank. So just be careful.

[hotlemond]

in long term, once you had a considerable sized carpet, it become the only centrepiece in the tank.

dun trust them to stay put even with ideal conditions.

there are other carpets, but recommended are haddon.
