The anemone arrived healthy and stayed vibrant in my 55-gallon tank. It attached well to a rock and has been active since day one. My fish haven’t touched it, and the colors are bright and stable.
Brandon Bailey –
It’s a beautiful addition to my reef tank. I noticed it expanded slightly after a few weeks. I keep the flow moderate and use LED lighting. It’s not aggressive and blends well with other corals.
Victor Hemmings –
Great color retention even after two months. I’ve had a few other anemones that didn’t survive, but this one has stayed healthy. The packaging was secure and the instructions were clear.
