I have never kept one , I found a little info on them online they live in estiaries and shallow costal waters. Very pretty, would like to hear more about them. Would make a neat addition. They look simalar to some of the bulkier flower anemones.

I bought one and it died within a week, and I keep RBTA's in this tank. Sprung's Invert. book says they like cooler temps, and my tank is at 81 degrees so I figured it was way to warm.
