Hardiest/best Nem

[ndeksone]

I have a 30 gallon cube reef with a variety of corals and livestock. I want a good, HARDY nem die my two picasso extreme misbars (approx 2" & 3")to host in. Any thoughts on breed, color, size, etc? My lfs is steering me towards a sebae. Thoughts?

Well for me that's a crap shoot.
I've had some that have been through hell and be fine and the same type just wilt away for no reason.

Had a long tentacle and carpet nem for over a year, those things were tanks. But like Marlon said, probably just a crap shoot.

IME bubble tips are some of the easier nems to keep. I started with 1 green and 1 red 2 years ago and now have 4 green and 2 red not including the ones I've sold. I've never had one die.

RBTA's are known to be "difficult" but if your tank is established and you have good flow and steady prams, it will be a cake walk. My RBTA split twice and went thru hexx and back, then grew to about 16" without splitting. It totally out grew my tank so I quartered it! Yup cut her into four, then cut the largest again and put the smallest back in my tank they all healed quickly and thrived.
If your tank isn't established, I wouldn't recommend a RBTA however, I've got a beautiful very hardy Bulb Anemone up for sale ATM. It's purple, about 5", healthy and needs a home.
LMK if interested.

I tried to PM you but your box is full.

I'll trade you out a little electrical work for the nem if interested.

It's easy stuff, I'll just never get to it.
Oh, except the fustrating 3 way dining room dimmer switch, I just don't get that issue!

Buy an aqua cultured anemone.

Thank you everyone! Is there a difference in a bulb anemone and a bta?
