anemone becoming HUGE !

[jacobus]

i bought this anemone few weeks back ... its sort of like a BTA ... dark green in colour luminous in blue light ... but when it settles down ... its tentacles become long and dun look like BTA kind ... today ... it became EXTREMLEY HUGE ... normally .. its my palm size ... then today it became the size of my whole hand with fingers spread out ... almost more than twice its size like tt ... can even see the spacing between its tentacles ... like very obvious kind ... is this ok ?

It's normal. Mine also expanded and took up 1/3 of my tank. I had never expected that to happen, but... sigh, it's still doing very well in my tank.

Yes the tentacles are spread out and my clowns do not feel the anemone as "fluffy" as before, but they still enjoy it.

All corals will expand when the conditions are stable. So unless the coral has been in the shop for long and has already settled down, it'll expand once it gets used to your tank....
