how to frag anemone video included

You must have quite reasonable water conditions in the aquarium to achieve a good out come.
What type of bio filtering do you use and what sought of water parameters are needed for the fraging to be a success.
How long did it take to get it right?
It looks like you are including the mouth for each section, if so it is similar to what an old mate use to do with morphs.
Which colour variety are the anemones you are using, it’s a bit hard to see the colour?

What conditions do you need for this to work?
I have herd there can be an adverse amount of deaths under the wrong conditions,my flat mate used to try this type of thing and never did any good,with any thing really she tried though.

mate honeslty all i did was cut like a pizza and put it back in the tank and kust keep an eye on the water quality

as for filtration i had nothing but powerheads and a skimmer in the tank.i didnt even have a sump attached top the tank.cutting took about 5 seconds or less water paremters were just your normal required like normal PH,salinity ,and tepm i had a chiller set at 24 degrees it was just a straight clean cut with sharp scisors

So what you are saying is that if the water is kept at a premium,temperature stable, it works out fine.


What about the feeding process during this and are there any other life forms in there or a they exempt.
Cause they would affect/harm the damaged tissue wouldn't they.
It sounds very easy and is there nothing else to be aware of with the successful division?

(For sure)Sounds just like the fraging of coralimorphs.

Well done neman,i still want ot know what colour variety they are?

sorry roy there just bubbletip anemones entacmea quadricolour i have tried cutting a carpet anemone but it wasnt succesfull i think i attempted to early it was only a new addition i got excited about the succes of the bta and had a go at the carpet to early

Just curious,what do you feed these bubble tips to keep them healthy and to heal up.

Even on reef central there are so many threads on it where they have no idea how to keep an anemone alive let alone split them and then do well.
Do you get yours form LFS or make your own?

Too true carmen.
That is a huge site with a lot of working minds on board,i have seen the same thing about the anemones as well.
What foods do you recomend neman.

when i feed my babys i use raw bait prawn/or prawns fit for human consumption about thumbnail size peices or a little smaller. never use cooked meat and i peel the shell of so its easier to break down.i do get my broodstock from the lfs aswell

They are like babys,marines that is,at least they don't cry when they are teething

The old faithful (prawns) love em,so do the anemones by the sound of it,the for human consumption thing,very true they add chemicals to some i have heard.

I have seen anemomes spit them out before,must have been the not for us ones.
Keep trying with the other species neman and let us know when you have success with other nemo homes.
