The anemone arrived healthy and has been thriving in my 30-gallon tank. It’s colorful and active, and I’ve noticed it gently interacts with my small fish. The lighting and flow settings I used match the recommended conditions, and it’s grown steadily over the past few months.

It’s a beautiful addition to my reef tank. I kept it in moderate lighting and medium flow, and it has expanded its tentacles nicely. A bit shy at first, but now it’s more confident. I’d recommend it to intermediate aquarists.

Grew quickly in my 30-gallon tank. The green color with yellow tips stands out well. I’ve maintained stable water parameters and it’s been very stable since setup. No issues with aggression so far.
