Hey all,
I just added a purple tip anemone to my 55g Reef Tank.
I have 2 Perc Clown fish, 1 Brown Legged Hermit crab, 1 Electric Orange Hermit Crab, 1 Camel Shirmp, 1 Cleaner Shrimp, 1 Fire shrimp, and a cluster of Zoo Polyps.
I added the purple tip anemone to the tank to hopefully give the 2 clown fish a home. They always swim around the tank looking lik they need a place to call home.
My question is, Does this anemone sting? The reason I ask, is because as soon as I put it in the tank my Shirmp ran up to the anemone and started picking at it. So It made me curious as so what exactly do they sting?
Is there anything I should know about this Anemone? Does anyone have tips?
Right now I am adding Calcium, Iodine, and trace elements to the tank.
Thanks,
-TheChad
