How to keep anemones!

In this video I give you some tips for keeping anemones in a reef tank. I also explain the 3 levels of stress that an anemone can manifestate.

[@damiencornwall2442]

Thank you so much. This was very helpful and reassuring. Troubling times with my first GBTA. I learned quite a bit.

[@danielnestorio]

Anemones.. Anemones are like little bags of water. Best scientific explanation I’ve heard. You may get a sub.

Thank you so much for your helpful information ! Now I understand why my carpet anemone vomited on his first day.

[@danielnestorio]

your welcome! my pleasure to help

[@mounadaoudi2175]

mine are becoming white and smaller and they don't want to take food

[@thorbradshaw2637]

how long do you leave lights on with them a day I have a 600 w full spectrum light? Also someone else was saying we should plant his foot in the sand for the lta?

[@danielnestorio]

8 hours is plenty. plant on sand is more for tube anemones. this ones need a hard surface. well if you have a shallow sand bed they might grab them selfs in the glass, that is a possibility. but its better rock

As a father with small children i don’t really have time to keep the tank perfect. My Heteractis magnifica’s keeps getting bigger and multiply too fast. No feeding or special care. Now i see nems as weed in the tank. 😂

[@Ray-wr2wr]

why my anemone hiding for last 3 weeks ? from day one (

[@danielnestorio]

most likely is water chemistry. or chemical warfare by the corals (use carbon that will remove toxins). Go to your local fish store, take a water sample, lets start that way. also temperature check that out. if she is attach to a rock and mouth is closed that is a good sign.

[@michelhaineault6654]

need surely a good salt quality and water change

[@mogtrader8]

How often should you feed them, actually.

[@danielnestorio]

Twice a week

[@danielnestorio]

Thank you for the feedback

[@briantompkins947]

I need some help. I have a new Green Tip Bubble anemone. My first. It looks great for hours, but then it will pull everything in and looks like it pushes all the water out. Looks deflated. I got scared and moved it to the QT tank. After a few hours it is looking good again. I now have two other anemones in the tank and they seem to be doing good. Please help.

[@danielnestorio]

my first thing is always to check all the chemistry . test salinity pH, kH, ammonia, nitrite, nitrate, phosphates, calcium, magnesium and temperature. is she attached to the rock or got loose? what size tank you have? light? flow?

[@briantompkins947]

@@danielnestorio All is better now. I pulled her out and put into isolation for two weeks. After a week of moving around the tank she has found a spot and is looking good. I found my nitrates we on the high side.

[@fugitivetattoo]

"Sea bass", maroon or tomato clownfish? Sea bass? Am I hearing you correct? What is a sea bass clownfish?

[@danielnestorio]

Sea bay clownfish
