Anemone Question

marxsman · 04-06-2005, 01:52 AM

I have an anemone that I would like to get identified. I looked all over the web and had no luck.

I will post a picture if I can get a good one. All mine come out blurry or too dark. The anemone only opens in the night. It is about the size of a quarter and yellowish clear. It stays hidden in it's foot during the day. I have moved it to a shaded part of the aquarium to see if I could get a picture during better light. It appears to like the spot because I have 2 now.

I have never seen one like this and cna't find any good sources that specify on nocturnal anemones.

I have fed it brine shrimp and it loves it.

Any suggestions?

Don't feed it until we can ID it. My buddie has something with similar behaviors and we figured out it was a Majano. You don't want them spreading everywhere and it sounds like they may be starting to anyway.
