Thanks.

Could you be a little more specific?

Cerianthus spp.?

Mmm, Tube anemones are described in this article http://www.advancedaquarist.com/issues/june2004/invert.htm, Cerianthus and Pachycerianthus, any colors and sizes.

Why in tanks:
I have one Cerianthus, the big pink-peach colored, and in very close future have to reduce the number of tanks (for simplifying maintenance). Either buy a separate tank for it, or incorporate it in aquascaping of the existing 90g tank.
Looking for solutions, that worked for someone. Visual presentation is better, more detailed, than verbal description.

The particular problem with them is that they require relatively low flow, lower, than many corals. I was hoping to see also the powerheads/flow outputs location in the tank, and placement of the tube anemone in relation to the flow and other corals.

Slightly out of topic, but also would like to know compatibility of the different kinds of tube anemones, usual in trade (violet with neon center, pink, off-white), rate of growth for them, adult size, how close they could be placed for comfortable living. Temperature and other water parameters, if the requirements are different for different kinds. I already asked in other places, but it seems that nobody knows.

dendro,

I don't have any of these but I believe reefdoctor has a few in his display in the bottom right corner. Hopefully he can chime in and post some pics. I took some the last time I was out there but the quality would get me banned from the site .

Thanks, I'll wait

Finaly someone who's into Tube's! All I read is fear threads and miss info on the trades, just annoyes me to death.

Realise this post is old but check out one of my other threads, very scarce but their out there. I have my tank pics up in my early days. Should give you some perspective and if you want i'll add some more. Glad to give more inpute should you want or need it. I have a bunch and I adopt them all the time from the LFS from mis- informed buyers. I am no expert but my hands are still burning from my newest one.( I don't believe in gloves.=/)
