Rock Flower Anemones

Jeff Cole · Jul 20, 2018

I am reaching out to the community for the umpteenth time to help me. I love Rock Anemones and would like to begin to keep a number of them. I have one with a second on the way. My question is it ok to place them right next to one another on the rockwork.
Thanks as always for all your great advice.

Yes, they won’t sting each other

How hard are they to keep in relation to other anemones? I have been successful with my bubble tip but am wary of the difficulty associated with keeping anemones. I currently have two rock anemones and they have done well so far, but have not had them very long. Any opinions or experiences would be greatly appreciated.

Rock flowers are not difficult to keep. It’s ok to put them pretty close together. If your tank has been set up for a while ( my opinion 9-12 months or more) and parameters are stable, you should be fine.

They totally touch. They are the same species and will get along fine. You can have a garden of dozens of different ones so close that you cannot see the rock or substrate below.
