Im nervis to heavy feed it the more i feed it the faster it grows. I youst to feed it 1 time a week now 1 time every 2 weeks. I had it on 10k XMs but last 3 months 15k XMs the growth rate has slowed down alittle but it is still growing. I dont want to try to force split chance it might die.

Maybe I'm crazy, but I was under the assumption that sebae splits were rare, if they happen at all.

sebae anemones can get up to around 2 feet in diameter. I may be wrong but im pritty sure sebae dont split on there own. If you search the net you will find many forums where people have cut there sebae in half and both end up surviving just fine.

i say it's a shame for it to split, it's so huge ... you should just upgrade tanks!

As far as I know your type does not split but I have been wrong before. Do some seaches on this site and if I were you I would PM "Phender", he is the master of the anemone and clownfish domain.
