This WYSIWYG Rock Flower Anemone offers anemone movement and placement flexibility for a reef aquarium, with care centered on a protected foot, stable conditions, and time to settle 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. Acclimate gradually to its intended intensity and observe its response before making further placement or lighting adjustments.

Flow

Use low to moderate indirect flow. Avoid strong direct flow, which can disturb the anemone and make it harder for the foot to remain securely attached.

Placement

Place it in a lower rock crevice or along a sand-and-rock edge. Give it time to secure its foot, and expect it may move while selecting a suitable location.

Temperament

Allow generous space from neighboring corals and anemones. It is semi-aggressive, may move, and should be positioned where its movement and potential contact will not create problems.

Feeding

Occasional small meaty foods may be offered, but feeding is optional. Keep portions modest and remove any uneaten food if necessary.

General Care

Maintain stable salinity and temperature, and protect the foot from damage during placement or adjustment. Observe attachment, position, and response to flow after introduction, allowing time to settle rather than repeatedly moving it.

Plan its location carefully, then give it room and time to attach.
