Mini carpet anemones

[ezhdg41]

I am very excited about what is happening in my tank. I had 2 red mini carpet anemones in my tank. I was looking at my tank and noticed that a third one popped up about the same size. I thought maybe one of them split. A day later two more, all about the same size. Now I have a total of six and I have not seen one smaller then any of the previous ones. Really cool but I have no idea why. Any insight?

Do you have any pics of the anemones? I haven’t heard of carpets splitting very often

 

[Rtaylor]

When you say carpets….haddoni? Maxi minis? Pics?

Sounds like a Bali mini maxi. They split readily.

 

[ezhdg41]

This is a new one.

 

[Rtaylor]

Yup, it’s a mini maxi

Mini Max's are just so awesome! Great little creature that can expand easily in good conditions.

I really need to find where I can buy one of these guys. Recently set up a Lifegard 4.14 pico and I think one of these red minis would be the best inhabitants

That is a fantastic price compared to Dr Mac's, the shipping is not an issue since it's the same over @ pacific east.
Can you fellas that have these mini max, are they rock dwellers, do they absolutely need a sand bed? Toying with putting these into a bare bottom anemone only tank.
TIA

Mine hangs out on the rock as does the one in my daughters tank but we have only had them for a few days. However, all the mini maxi anemones I have seen have been rock dwellers.
