Ohhh, Very nice color patterns.

very nice!

Very pretty.. I've never seen one in person.. Are they attached to rock? And do they move around much?

No, they don't come attached to anything. My personal experience is that they don't move around much. If you find a good spot for them where they feel safe they tend to stay there. Only one of my 7 RFA moved once and it was just a few inches from I placed it.

I know have 11 RFA anemones in my tank. I'll post some pics of my other RFA later tonight or tomorrow.

always loved how the flowers looked....kinda like a zoanthid on acid:mrgreen:....I could see how those could become an obsession.....very nice indeed!..... love the red and white edged one with the black and white stripes in the middle

They are so beautiful :surprise: Their colors are so nice makes them look like somebody painting them, not a real living things.

[Snappy]

Very impressive specimens. Those are sweet!

Thanks, they are awesome! I wish Canadian vendors offered these colorful RFA. I am certain that they would sell pretty fast. Almost every person that drops by my place wants to know where they can get some.

only one:wink:

It's impossible to have only one :lol:
There are now 12 in my tank :biggrin:

[ponokareefer]

Those are awesome! I have never seen that colorfull of ones in a store before. Great score!

[sumpfinfishe]

Did you pick them up from seattle, if so how much do they cost and what size are they roughly?

Nice pics, i love the red an white one-must be a patriotic thing:mrgreen:

[Reefgoat]

These are truly incredible looking. Like Casey8 said Some of the colors really do seem almost too colorrful to be real. I hope we start seeing some like these around here.

Are they quite hardy? What kind of conditions do they prefer?

[paddyob]

Those are the best Rock Nems I have ever seen!

Great acquisition!

No, I didn't buy them in Seattle. Price for these varies between $30dlls to $100dlls. All the ones I have posted cost over $70dlls each.

They are pretty hardy and very easy to care for. Medium light, medium flow and feed it once a week and you have a happy RFA.

Oh, I almost forget to mention that all my RFA anemones spawned few weeks ago and couple days ago I spotted the first RFA babies. It seems that there are quite a few all over the tank. RFA anybody? :biggrin::biggrin::biggrin:

These RFA are still very small and it will take a while before I am able to tell what color they are. It will be months before they are ready to be sold.
