do blue LTA's keep their color?

[jamie1210]

My LFS sometimes gets in these light blue/white LTA's. They could definitely use some coloring up. I'm wondering if anyone here has ever kept one long term. If so, how does it look like when it's colored up? Does it keep the blue color?

These anemones will be mostly brown with just a hint of blue once they regain their zooxanthellae

Darn it, not the answer I was hoping for lol. No wonder we never see bright blue LTA's for sale.

Good to know, though!

Thanks!

I think they turn green. I’ve seen a few like that turn green, don’t be sad, they are still a very beautiful anemone! I’d keep it if I got it I’ve seen them beautiful after acclimated.

Oh, I haven't bought it yet. Just eyeing it I would love to try one out, but running out of room! Must make anemone purchase decisions wisely
