Adding anemone to tank with clownfish

StephanieR41 · Jul 30, 2019

New at this saltwater tank and loving it so far. Want badly to be successful and to do it correctly. I’m wanting to add anemone and possibly other types of coral etc etc. what is the best way to start adding?

Welcome to the REEF!! The best way to start is slow. Tell us a little about your system. Have you checkd your water parameters and if so what are they?

Welcome to R2R!!! I would let the tank mature before adding an anenome.

From my experience on anemones, give it time. I bought one, beautiful anemone. It didn’t last that long. I thought my parameters were great. But it didn’t make it. Best to wait.

!!! Welcome to R2R !!! Good suggestions from our fellow reefers and my own experience. Depending on how long you have the tank setup. Let the tank mature to add anemones.

Welcome to R2R!!!!
Everything that I would have asked has been asked.
Looks like you are going to have to help us help you. The number one thing you can take away so far is, if you really want to be successful, slow down and no matter how badly you want something you will need to take your time to keep that something.

Glad you joined us. You are new poster and May I assume your tank is also new?
If so, let the tank age ( would say 4-5 months) and if all going well, look at a BTA anemone for your clowns. Likely wont take them long to dive in.
What size and age Is your tank?
