Maybe you guys can help me id these. They are native to the northern Gulf of Mexico, but I can't find a name for them. Sorry for the bad pics.
The second has a blue tentacle with red tips. The color doesn't show very well in the pic. |

If the foot is bumpy it might be a warty anemone. I was giving one that was red & another that was blue.

You are awesome! Yes, the foot is very bumpy. That caught my attention when it balled up. The 3" max size is great news. Do you mind providing some personal experience with them for me? Either here or pm, whichever is most appropriate. I'm off to look them up now that I have a name.

I had them for a while & had no trouble out of them. Mine didn't move around but thats not to say yours wont. I never saw anything get into mine. I had Clarkii clowns & sexy shrimp. I dont know if they will host or not. I might of had the wrong clowns. They ate well for me & added a splash of color to the tank.
Hope this helps. |

Another ID question. I went snorkling today and got stung when a wave hit me. I figured it was a stray jellyfish tentacle, but didn't think and rubbed the spot. I quickly pulled something fleshy off my face only to catch it as it floated away. It has a reddish tint under my lights and no warty/ bumpy foot. Since warty anenomies are so common here (N. Gulf of Mexico) I had assumed it was one, but now am second guessing that. You guys did an awesome job helping id my last find so I've got my fingers crossed you will also know what this is. BTW, swelling on my face has gone down, but it left a small painful blister where I rubbed it on my face.

Over the weekend it has changed colour to a really shocking pink colour. Any reasons for this----I thought it might be the attinics starting to shift but usually that is at nine months for me.

My H. malu pair. The purple is the female and the green is the male. Notice the circular rings on the tentacles and the semi transparent quality of the coloration. There were a spawn in my tank for the first time in 3 years and both only 6-7 inches fully expanded. The female did not release any eggs, rather there were internal fertilization. At nigh between 48-60 hrs post spawn, all the larvae were released and were chew up by my pumps. Next time I will use air stone for circulation at 48 hrs. There is real potential in raising these anemones (this species and S. gigantea) in a close system
Please excuse the poor quality of the phone pictures.

I understand the Tangs and Angels, as they're constant grazers, and I understand the watchman goby and mandarin, but what about others?

The pics of my tank with the H. crispa are about 6 months old. I trimmed the halimeda and I've been carbon dosing so its not growing nearly as fast as before. I had tons of caulerpa which I finally eradicated. I added more fish too. Here's the whole tank as of today:
Reading through this thread specifically about the level of care ratings for the different types of anemones, I would have to disagree about the "more difficult" rating for H. crispa anemones. I've kept many of them and not one has ever died, even the bleached one I kept in my first saltwater tank. I'd switch H. crispa with S. haddoni, but that's just my opinion.
