I have been breaking down my 29 gal and these little anenomes were starving for light, so I caught them and put them in a little container. I have a few that I put in my big tank, but I want to leave room for other things.

I found if you have low nitrates they don't seem to reproduce much at all, but with higher trates they can split more frequent.

Free to good home, I can ship priority for $6 flat rate box. I have shipped them and they were fine after two days, just needed some light asap.

Wow that's alot of nems!

I bet wolfpack would be all over this if he had good lights.

Youre a good egg for offering Lefty.
 
Im interested in the green tip... don't think anyone would want the majano though
 
Lol, the green tips are majanos, they have a bad rap, but they are basically zoas. I even had them next to and touching some blue zoas and neither cared or died or moved.

carey i just cried because i dont have lights! im not even old enough tank wise to :'(
 
wait a sec lefty arent these pests like apista but prettier lookin
His are a pretty green than the ones I had but I did consider them pests. They aren't quite as bad as aptasia but close in my book. Remember what is one persons pest might be something someone else wants.
 
Yes, some say they are pests, others buy and collect them. I got them with my last tank and loved the colors and the bubble tips. I only knew of people not liking them after doing some research.

The ones I have lived together in colonies, which is not usual behavior. They also didn't over take my tank, they are fairly easy to remove once you know how if you don't like them. I caught all of the ones in the cup by having only room light on and they migrated to the top of the rock.

I offered them up here rather then just killing them as some people do like them. I already put a colony in my tank and need the space for other creatures.
 
do the need super iintense lights like other nems? i want to try even though my tanks young in the next month im gettin a 4x24w t5

They are fine under T5s, and would probably survive with pcs, just not as good.
 
They do just fine under pc lights and they do fine in new tanks as well.

Lol, I think they will be okay, they just need light. Do you have actinics? They are neon green under actinics.
