Baby anemone?

[littlehermit0]

Hi I don't really know how baby anemones look like and how do they breed and how often

so basically I have these cold anemones (beadlet anemones) and I really want some more babies, I've heard they reproduce fast and alot of baby nems, so I wanted to know if this one is

Appears to be a pest aptasia but many polyps and bottom looks like hydroid

Yeah was also thinking about a Hydroid but it is impossible for it to be aiptasia, even if I'd forcefully put one there, this tank is cold and there were no aiptasia in the place where I found these anemones, it's also completely separated from my reef tank so nothing warm touches it but in reverse I "breed" cold macro algae in the warm

for what it's worth, it wouldn't surprise me if aiptasia could survive in colder water... that being said, the first picture looks "fuller" than most aiptasia I've seen, so maybe it's something else. Tagging our resident creature ID expert, @ISpeakForTheSeas in case they have thoughts!

Aptasia can survive cold water as ive seen and I believe referred to as trumpet anemone

That very well may be a juvenile beadlet anemone (Actinia equina) - it would be my guess, honestly, but I can't find pics of the juveniles to compare with, so I can't say for sure. I can say, though, that it's not a hydroid, and I doubt it's "Aiptasia" (either technically or colloquially).

Anemones can reproduce both sexually and asexually; beadlet anemones brood their young (and, interestingly, the young of other beadlet anemones as well).

There's some debate as to if these nems reproduce sexually or not, but the thought at the moment is that they do (which makes sense to me for a number of reasons). Anyway, it's thought that they release their sexually produced young as swimming larvae, which then find their way to an adult beadlet anemone to be brooded until they're ready to settle (the asexually produced young are simply brooded until they're ready to settle).

There's actually a lot of reasons why I post the same question multiple times

A lot of people give different answers, like when my clownfish was dying I didn't know what to do, google, ai and some members were saying different things, so I tried to get many answers that were the same as others say (like a vote) also sometimes I post something and then 5 seconds later I get another problem, then I get that same problem back not knowing I already did a post about it, and there was another reason but I forgot about it

understandable - you can also utilize the poll function on this forum when you make a post, using potential good answers you've found already to get a consensus of experienced reefers!

Yeah I've seen the poll thingy but I never tried it, I prefer getting a few answers first and then the poll when it's an emergency
