Well today I thinned out my anemones, I had about 30

At first I was careful to try to not harm them ,as I'm passionate about saving every thing, but as I tried and tried I killed about 7, leaves me feeling unhappy, but they were taking over the tank. On a positive note I saved about 10, I will see how that goes in time .
Does anyone what a green with red tipped anemone ?

I had one GBTA in my tank that was about 12" across when fully open, it's since split and now I have 2 GBTA's that are about 8 inches across when fully open. They take up a huge chunk of my tank. I'd get rid of one, but my maroon clown won't let me near either of them. They're his and his alone. Takes a good swipe at me if I get too close while cleaning the glass.

That's amazing - I have 3 anemones in my 190g. One sebae and 2 RBTA's that used to be one. All are quite large - probably up to 15" when fully expanded. I would love it if the RBTA's would split some more and really fill out the tank.
If I lived closer I would definately buy a couple of your anemones.

I am in the same boat my nem just started to split the other day and my clowns guard it, i wanted to get rid of the nem because it moves every few months and stings the crap out of my other corals but i am getting a MH light soon so i hope that might make it happier.

Has anyone tried making "bomies" for there BTAs apparently you just separate a rock from other rocks and the glass and the nem wont stray off it.

Ya, I have a Maroon in my 30G where I am keeping the extra anemones that bites so hard it draws blood !
