Are rock anemones as fragile as bubble tips?

[Clo]

Hello,

I'm interested in getting one or two down the line. I know for bubble tips and other regular anemones, it's recommended to wait at least 6-8 months for stable parameters. Is it the same for rock anemones as well?

Sorry for the silly question, i've been searching the forums and haven't been able to find much care information about them.

Rock anemones are still fragile but tend to run at a lower cost ($20-50 for non ultras) so if you were to experiment with them it wouldn’t be the worst idea however a dead anemone decomposes very quickly and could crash a smaller tank.

I've not found either one to be fragile.

They're nearly bombproof in my experience.

I put my rbta in at the 3-4 month mark

I agree, I think the difficulty of bubble tips is greatly exaggerated. Rock flowers are also very hardy in my experience.

Ok thank you all !
