Reef Safe?

[kedabo]

Pseudocorynactis Caribbeorum (ball anemone) is this a safe hitchhiker to have in a reef tank? I posted a similar question in another forum on this site and got no replies. Please help.

my guess would be no. Many anemones in the Pseudocorynactis family are big eaters and their tentacles have very strong nemocasts. I have read that some of these anemones can harm and kill fish/ inverts. whether that specific type is bad i cant say for sure but seeing as how it probably is, i would reccommend removing it,

Maximum size about 0.5 in.
Foods & Feeding They lack zooxanthellae but do well in reef tanks that are well fed.No target feeding is necessary ,but they reproduce more rapidly if fed.Good aquarium animals.

Cool thanks. By the way I got the species wrong right genus though. Same animal different species.
