Most Anemones are sessile with a specialized foot used to anchor them in soft substrates or attach themselves to rocks and corals. Provide excellent water conditions, moderate to strong current, and intense lighting. Bits of shrimp or other meaty foods can be used to supplement their diet.
Once thought to be the purview of only the experienced aquarist, today’s aquarium technology makes it possible for a novice with an established tank (at least four to six months old) to successfully keep an anemone. While not necessary in captivity, pairing a host anemone with a clownfish is one of the most striking displays in the hobby.
