Quick Stats

Description

The Condylactis Anemone (Condylactis gigantea) is a striking and adaptable marine invertebrate, commonly found in shallow tropical waters. It is known for its beautiful coloration, which can vary from white to shades of green and pink, often displaying a stunning contrast with its long, flowing tentacles. This makes it a popular choice for reef aquariums.

With a moderate care level, the Condylactis Anemone is suitable for aquarists who have some experience with marine life. As a carnivore, it feeds primarily on meaty foods such as small fish, shrimp, and a variety of other protein sources. Regular feeding is crucial for maintaining its health and ensuring vibrant colors.

The Condylactis Anemone has a semi-aggressive temperament, using its stinging tentacles to defend its territory. When choosing tank mates, it’s essential to consider larger, more robust species that can coexist safely, as smaller or more delicate animals may fall victim to its sting.

In terms of habitat, this anemone prefers sandy or gravel substrates where it can anchor securely. It thrives in well-lit environments with moderate to strong water flow. A stable environment with proper water parameters is essential for the success of this species.

While the Condylactis Anemone can coexist with certain reef inhabitants, caution is advised. Its interactions with other species should be monitored to prevent any potential harm to smaller fish or invertebrates.
