I picked up the rock anemone through a wholesaler called "fish heads" probably the only nice piece of livestock they sent the store I worked at then.
colorfull rock anemone are semi hard to find unless you find a company that has collectors that work their regions, the problem being the brown ones are super common and it drives the prices down reducing collection and purchasing so the more colorfull ones arent as sought after by collectors because they know that the price is going to be fairly low regardless of color because no one sells rock/flower anemone for over $15-20, so that aghain drives collection efforts lower. if you have a choice would you fill your boat with $50 animals or $10. they also arent a hostable species so clown fish enthusiasts or casual hobbyests wont buy them because "nemo" wont host in them.
