Rock Flower Anemone

Rock Flower Anemone - Care Requirements

Rock Flower Anemone is a rock flower anemone suited to established reef aquariums. This WYSIWYG Rock Flower Anemone offers a distinct focal point for a reef setup while fitting low to moderate light and gentle, indirect water movement. Give it time to settle into a secure location after introduction.

This is a WYSIWYG anemone, meaning the anemone shown in the photo is the exact piece you will receive.

Quick Care Summary

• Lighting: Low to moderate lighting
• Flow: Low to moderate indirect flow
• Placement: Lower rock crevice or sand-and-rock edge
• Temperament: Semi-aggressive and capable of moving
• Care Level: Beginner to Moderate

Lighting

Provide low to moderate lighting. Start in a lower-light area and adjust gradually only after it has attached and settled.

Flow

Use low to moderate indirect flow. Avoid strong direct flow, which can prevent the anemone from settling comfortably.

Placement

Place it in a lower rock crevice or at a sand-and-rock edge. Allow it to secure its foot without disturbance, and expect it may move as it chooses a location.

Temperament

Give this semi-aggressive anemone room from nearby corals and other sessile neighbors. It can move, so leave space around its preferred placement and monitor surrounding specimens.

Feeding

Feeding is optional. An occasional small meaty offering can be provided after the anemone is established and securely attached.

General Care

Maintain stable salinity and temperature, and protect the foot from damage during placement or any needed repositioning. Observe its attachment and location after introduction rather than repeatedly moving it while it settles.

Allow a settled Rock Flower Anemone to choose and hold its preferred spot.
