My 2 feet Tank

[Dispar_Anthias]

Anemones should have some 'colour' in them.... mostly green or brown, although some come in shades of paler colours.

I am not too sure about yours, if its bleached or just pale.. although I suspect it may be bleached.

Don't be mistaken, the tips or outer skin can exhibit flourescent colours but we are talking about the body colour of the main stalk or the polyps.

Its the photosynthetic zooxanthelae cells in them that gives the colour.

When an anemone is stressed (probably heat-related), it may expel the zoozanthelae cells and when it then becomes 'empty'... the body will look pale white or even transparent. Same thing goes for corals who exhibit this same symptoms.

Bleached corals and inverts do look nice due to the pale colours but in reality, they are actually in danger.

With no more energy coming from the symbiotic photosynethetic algae, the bleached anemone will need supplementary feeding of meaty foods till they colour up back again over time.

thank.

IMO...not advisable as

1) they are fast swimmers which need more space...

2) they 'pooh' a lot...wondering if your bioload can take it...

3) they grow bigger too fast too soon...

My first tank was just like yours...

eheim 2213, air driven protein skimmer, lots of live rocks, white ANEMONE(big mistake for 2ft tanks)...

anyway the thing about tanks like ours is discipline.

we cannot add too much fish and we cannot keep tangs.

i was considering getting a regal tang way before nemo came out.

then i figured it would be really stressed in such a small tank which it would outgrow in no time, then the stress related diseases would come in and the other inhabitants will get stressed too.....

basically blue tang is no go...

also remember that 2ft tanks require weekly water changes...

haha thats why i have upgraded to 3'x2'x2' tank with 3'x2'x2' sump...

[deman]
