i just got 2 anemone from LFS, they told me it is LTA, but they looks somewhat different.
today my bigger anemone moved from rock top into a cave, and start to deflate to get ride of waste. but after 4 hours, the big anemone still somewhat deflated and i can see a part of it's lip (or the white thingy inside his mouth fliped out a little bit, you can see the white in second picture. but the whole mouth still closed, cant see inside anemone)
is that normal? or is he stressed (my MH light died, wont have a replacement until wednesday, using PC light now, ammonia 0 nitrite 0 nitrate possible 0-10, hardness 4-5, pH 8.1, calc 500 phosphate 0-0.025) i got him friday, and he was fine until yesterday night, decided to move 2 inchs into the cave. will he recover?
also, could anyone help me ID those 2 anemone? #1 and #2 is the acting weird big anemone, #3 is a new anemone
sorry for the crappy pictures

My LTA did that too. it was like he was spiting up his guts. about a week later he melted. the people a the old lfs said that is how they crap. well he did, all of his guts. I would keep your eye on it and see how he does. it looks like a LTA to me, but I'm no anenome professor. good luck.

Do you have a clearer pic of the first pic, it looks like a BTA at first glance need a clearer pic though.

Nice pictures! Very pretty! You can google anemone and find lots of information on different types - feeding etc.....
