Guys I live near the sea, (mediterrenean sea) and saw these anemones that are small and very nice. Can I keep one in my tank?

Are they hard or easy to keep ?

Looks like a long-tentacled anemone I once had in my tank. Roams alot and will sting other corals. I had to give mine away tho he was quite pretty.

Isn't that what we buy called a condy anemone???

a LTA is a Macrodactyla Doreensis, and hosts many clown species.. a "Condy" is a Condylactis Gigantea and is a non clown hosting atlantic anemone..but sometimes clowns will take up residency in them, and sometimes even get eaten by them..

That's a Snakelocks Anemone, Anemonia viridis, a temperate species. You are going to need a chiller if you want to attempt to keep one.

Why Dragonet-dude ?
Is this anemone reef safe and does it live with tropical envirenmont, tempreture,SG etc..

Thanks
