I previously kept a rose bubble tip anemone in my Red Sea Max C-250 and it died, killing off the whole tank. I have to expensive clownfish that host everything and have a tendency to kill off corals. Anyone know how I can keep a healthy and happy anemone for my clownfish. I have well-maintained water(no major algae problems, crystal clear, weekly water changes, regular dosing, and testing) and healthy fish.

I would guess that your par is ok if you can keep lps and what not. How often did you feed the anemone (or how often did the clown)?

Hmm, I would try not to feed it everyday but rather twice a week unless it was smaller food pieces. I have heard about overfeeding but I can't say that I have any sort of evidence to back that claim up. I would say renting a par meter might help just so you can get an idea of your lighting. Was there anything that happened around the time it split?

Ya I don't feed neither of my anemones but sometimes ill see one of my clowns feed them even than the only time I've had mine split was when I watched my clownfish feed the anemone a huge piece of rods food I wouldn't worry much about target feeding especially if they have a clown hosting
