very difficult if possible to keep successfully long term in the confines of home aquaria... especially when the tank is a garden reef with mixed and crowded cnidarians (corals, anemones, polyps, etc.)

I suggest a species tank (small biotope display is fine) if you try it at all. My real preference is for this organism to be left to experts or simply left in the sea. I really wish retailers would not (!) offer this specimen for casual sale or impulse purchases.

Kudos to you for researching first.

kindly, Anthony
