The Rose Anemone is a Bubble Tip Anemone with unusually red/orange coloration. Bubble Tip Anemones are the hardiest of the Anemones to keep in captivity. As specimen grows larger it may split into clones. This anemone will host most Clownfish and should be placed in a large, well lit aquarium that is well established and has stable water quality.
Other Common Names: Bulb Anemone, Four Anemone, Bulb Tentacle Anemone

Though mostly photosynthetic, supplemental feedings of raw table shrimp, clam, mussel, silversides, squid and other marine based meats can be fed every few days. Pieces should be cut roughly to the size of the anemones mouth.

Anemones have stinging cells called nematocysts which can cause allergic reaction in humans and often death to the animals it shares the aquarium with. We recommend handling this animal with some sort of protection (plastic, rubber, or latex gloves) to protect your hands and arms.
