Anemones that are fish safe (or at least close)

[LordJoshaeus]

Hi everyone! I would love to have an anemone in my 10 gallon nano reef tank. However, that tank has a royal gramma and a Talbot's damsel in it...are there any anemones that would be safe with those fishes? Thanks

Rock flower nems are your best bet in that size of a tank. This anemone that’s known for eating our fish is the carpet anemone.

Ah, good! I was asking because I wanted a rock flower anemone.

I tried to put my RFAs at the sandbed against a rock. Somewhere my little guys don't perch.

So no longer NPS dominant?

If you read product descriptions at LiveAquaria or search for them on here, you may get the information you are looking for more quickly

Yeah...I came to the conclusion that an ATTRACTIVE NPS tank is more than I can handle. This is going to be a more traditional tank now with lots of macroalgae, an anemone, and some photosynthetic gorgonians...and the sun coral (if it survives...it hasn't opened in several days for some reason)

I thought the sun coral was growing a lot, in the last thread you made about it

It was...but Monday I tried adding a HOB overflow and, since then (and the accompanying rock jostling) it has not opened. Very concerned about it
