Bored at home. Watching my tank under the royal blues and moon lights. Thought my true orange tube anemone looked cool. Thought I'd share. Its actually a pink color with orange dots. Or my color blindness has reached an all new level. Check it out.

Very cool:..

Saw one at the aqua some in Austin with some sick colors... Mine is cool but IMO, takes up to much real estate..

Yeah. I say worth the real estate. Its hovering close to some corals. But still got a ways to go. I like it.

Oh i knew what you ment. No worries. I like it. My girl likes it. So its sticki.g around for a while. When it opens completely its proba ly 10 inches in diameter. Its a biggen alright. But it is definitely cool to watch eat. And eat it does. A lot.

Tubes are another favorite of mine. They come in so many colors. They don't need light so you can put them in places other nems can't go plus they rarely kill fish(I blieve most the stories of this are from an unhealthy fish coming into contact with them). When mine gets food it retracts just from the frozen so I believe that a healthy fish could easily swim away. Aqua Dome does get some sweet colors in!
