Add dramatic movement and stunning color to your reef with the Carpet Anemone — a large, vibrant anemone known for its textured, "rug-like" surface and powerful sting. This iconic species can be the perfect host for certain clownfish and becomes a show-stopping focal point in any large marine tank.
???? Key Features:
◽ Available in striking shades like neon green, electric blue, purple, and tan
◽ Sticky, undulating surface that gently flows in the current
◽ Can form a natural hosting relationship with Amphiprion (Clownfish) species
◽ Grows large — up to 12–18 inches in diameter when fully mature!
???? Care Requirements:
◽ Tank Size: Minimum 100 gallons
◽ Lighting: Moderate to high (prefers strong reef lighting)
◽ Flow: Low to moderate water movement
◽ Placement: Soft sandy or rubble substrate; allow space to attach and spread
◽ Temperament: Semi-aggressive – can sting nearby corals or fish
◽ Reef Compatibility: With caution – keep distance from sensitive coral species
????️ Feeding:
Though they receive nutrients via photosynthesis (thanks to symbiotic zooxanthellae), Carpet Anemones benefit from weekly feedings of:
◽ Mysis shrimp
◽ Chopped silversides
◽ Clam or scallop meat
◽ Enriched frozen marine preparations
⚠️ Important Notes:
Powerful sting – can harm fish and inverts not accustomed to its touch
