The anemone arrived healthy and has been thriving in my 30-gallon tank. It’s colorful and active, though I’ve had to keep it away from darting fish. The lighting is moderate, which matches the requirements. It’s a great addition to a balanced reef setup.

Grew well in my tank after a few weeks. I keep it in a corner with moderate lighting and medium water flow. It’s not overly aggressive, but it does extend tentacles when startled. Good value for the size and color.

Installed it in a 30-gallon tank with stable water parameters. It has expanded nicely and shows vibrant green and yellow hues. I avoid placing it near fast-moving fish to prevent stress.
