Green Carpet Anemone - South Asia

The Green Carpet Anemone, Stichodactyla sp, also known as Haddon's Anemone is best kept on a soft substrate bottom. Like many anemones, the Green Carpet makes an excellent host for most types of clownfish forming a symbiotic relationship. They are capable of stinging and semi-aggressive so should be kept away from other anemones and corals. This is one of the larger anemone species so a suitably large tank should be kept. The Green Carpet Anemone requires strong light and moderate water flow. The Green Carpet Anemone can sting humans if not careful while handling. They will greatly benefit from supplementary feedings of meaty foods.
