Rock Flower Anemone - Care Requirements

Rock Flower Anemone is a rock flower anemone suited to low to moderate light reef aquariums. This WYSIWYG Rock Flower Anemone is offered as the pictured specimen. Its care profile calls for a lower placement, gentle indirect circulation, and time to settle securely 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. Begin in a lower-light area and adjust placement gradually while observing how the anemone settles in your aquarium.

Flow

Use low to moderate indirect flow. Avoid strong direct flow, which can make it difficult for the anemone to remain comfortably attached.

Placement

Place it in a lower rock crevice or at a sand-and-rock edge. Allow it to choose and secure its foot without repeated repositioning, as it may move.

Temperament

Give it space from nearby corals and sessile neighbors. Rock flower anemones are semi-aggressive, can move, and may affect corals or other specimens placed too closely.

Feeding

Feeding is optional. Offer occasional small meaty foods if desired, and avoid overfeeding or disturbing the foot during feeding.

General Care

Maintain stable salinity and temperature, especially during introduction. Protect the foot from damage, allow time for attachment, and observe its position as it settles or moves within the reef aquarium.

Give it a secure lower spot and let it settle at its own pace.
