Grim Posted September 20, 2011 Share Posted September 20, 2011 I have 2 Corynactis californica AKA club tipped anemone i would like 2 trade they are bright red colonial anthozoan similar to sea anemones and scleractinian stony corals. this species is a colonial animal of the order Corallimorpharia. Other common names include club-tipped anemone and strawberry corallimorpharian. The anemone is known to carpet the bottom of some areas. This anemone grows no larger than 2.5 centimeters. The anemone is always bright red with transparent to white tentacles that are bulbous at the tips. The strawberry anemone resembles sea anemones in that they lack a calcareous skeleton, but are closer related to stony corals in that they lack basilar muscles. The strawberry anemone is found in water deeper than ten feet and may not be visible in intertidal pools. When held and raised in captivity, the strawberry anemone may be fed on tiny crustaceans including brine shrimp. So LMK...........WHAT YOU HAVE TO TRADE GRIM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aqua-Dome Posted September 20, 2011 Share Posted September 20, 2011 Corynactis live in 50-60 degree water. Probably not what you have. Search pseudocorynactis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So LMK...........WHAT YOU HAVE TO TRADE GRIM Pseudocorynactis Pseudocorynactis spp. are like Corynactis but are much larger (to about six inches (15 cm) diameter, and usually not colonial. They also reproduce by fission, but it is unusual to find more than about six clones together as a group. The so-called orange ball anemones that can be observed on coral reefs at night arePseudocorynactis spp. The column varies in color from cryptic shades of brown to orange, red and magenta. The tips of the tentacles are commonly bright orange, but they can also be white. These tentacle tips are extremely sticky, like flypaper, due to the presence of powerful nematocysts. This fact makes the larger species from the Indo Pacific region unsuitable for aquariums housing fishes, which they readily capture. They also can catch mobile invertebrates such as shrimps and snails, and sometimes "attack" sessile invertebrates growing on adjacent rocks, enveloping them in the gastric cavity through a widely opened mouth. Pseudocorynactis spp. can be fed daily, but only require twice weekly feeding to keep them healthy. If they are not fed frequently enough, they shrink. There is a marked behavioral difference between the common Caribbean and Indo-Pacific species. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
