interested to see how this one turns out. we need an sticky on why an anemone shouldnt be bought for small/unestablished/unexperienced tanks and their respective caretakers. It seems that almost all the new tanks on here ATM have an anemone..

I agree, The first thing I did was get a clown and a BTA and then the anemone died, Then I went out and got a carpet anemone which doubled in size in about 2 months and ate a few of my fish so I traded it for a sebae and it lasted for about a month or so.. I'm done with anemones for awhile.. I hope the OP takes the advice given and trades it in or moves it to his bigger tank. I would suggest maybe getting a Clown Goby and a few Sexy Anemone Shrimp and move the clown to the 29g.. Good luck..

Ya carpet anemones make fish disappear. I thought my BTA did this to my clarkii clown, but it turned out the he just likes to sleep inside the mouth with only his tail sticking out. It's very bizarre lol
