Will the Curly Que eat fish? I have an elongate dottback as the only fish in my 13.5 gallon and was wanting to get some Curly Que nems for the fun of it
 
They’re more of a docile anemone. Of course most anemone will grab what they can get- curlique a little less aggressive
 
If that is what I have I believe you will be ok. Just spot feed every now and then and they will get everything else they need from the tank...

YES! Thank You! I’ve posted before but didn’t get a ID from anyone. Thought it was a Curly Q but something kept telling me it wasn’t. Some Curly Q pics looks similar but most do not. So on another Rock I got a bigger one that has 3 babies I believe under it.
Are these Rhizotrochus also?
As they get bigger does their disk color up?

I have a hard time distinguishing Rhizo's from Balanophyllia but it looks like they are all either of those.

I don't think they would color up (unless already colored) because they are Non-photosynthetic and don't have Zooxanthellae.

They do have blue/green specks under the blues. They are some of my favorite hitchhikers I’ve gotten/noticed so far.
