 Topic: anemone's together?
Posted: February 19 2010 at 3:11pm |

Hi all, just doing some initial research... do anemones' live ok with eachother? Specifically a condy and a GBTA?
I know they don't play well with corals... wasn't sure with eachother.

no they will not " play nice" if they touch each other they will sting each other, sometimes just being in the same tank as each other will cause a chemical war.

I've mixed different anenome species in the same tank without problems. Condys, LTAs, BTAs...
I think you are OK as long as you have enough space and they are not all crowded into each other.

I never could keep more than one when I had my 55, but now that I have my 150 I can keep a few with no problem. Like bob said don't crowd them

I have a condy and a RBTA in my 65 with no problems. They are on opposite sides of the tank and do not bother anything at all.

I have 2 Condies and 6 or 7 GBTA's in a 180. All of them are huge and have done well together for almost 2 years.
Finding room for coral as these anemone's take over the tank? Well, now that's another story.

I have 2 RBTA, 1 GBTA and a very large carpet in my tank.
The largest of the RBTA and the carpet are touching each other most of the time and I haven't had any problems.
