Stichodactyla spp. (Colored) – Medium are captivating sea anemones known for their vibrant colours and dynamic movement. These anemones add both beauty and ecological interest to mature marine aquariums.
Care Level: Moderate to advanced. Stichodactyla spp. require stable water parameters and attentive husbandry.
Feeding: These anemones benefit from regular feeding of meaty foods such as mysis shrimp, chopped seafood, or specialised anemone pellets. Target feeding 1-2 times per week supports optimal health.
Compatibility & Reef Safety: Reef safe with caution. While generally compatible with many reef inhabitants, their stinging tentacles can harm small fish or invertebrates placed too close. Avoid housing with small or delicate species that may be stung.
Placement & Environment: Provide moderate water flow and moderate to strong lighting to mimic natural reef conditions. Position the anemone on stable rockwork with enough space to expand fully without contact with corals or other sessile invertebrates.
Tank Requirements: Due to their size and care needs, a minimum tank size of 100 litres is recommended to maintain water quality and provide adequate space.
Origin & Size: Origin not provided. Medium size indicates a specimen suitable for established reef tanks.
With proper care, Stichodactyla spp. anemones can thrive and become a stunning focal point in your marine aquarium.
