    she's a gold stripped maroon in a lt anemone in a 75g tank. the pic doesn't do them justice they both are pretty big. that anemone sometimes swells up so big it streches up almost 3/4 to the surface and as big as 12-14 inches around. she needs a mate

    Video of My Maroon making a mess

    mine does that too. all around the anemone the substrate is removed down to glass i had to rearrange that end of my tank so it wouldn't collapse my rocks. its funny though when i clean around it gets pissed and moves it all back its tail is a little frayed at the end from doing it so much.
