Green Condy Anemone (Condylactis gigantea)

Condy Anemone(Condylactis gigantea)

The Condy Anemone is also known as the Haitian Anemone or Giant Golden Anemone. It is found throughout the Caribbean and Western Atlantic, in lagoons or on inner reefs, as individuals, or loose groups. It is never found in connected clusters. Its disc diameter is of 16", (40 cm), but a disc of about 4", (10 cm) is common in an aquarium. This species has diverse color variations. The base color is usually brown to white and the tentacles may or may not have magenta, purple, or green tips on its long tapering tentacles. The tentacles may occasionally develop a bubble-like appearance to them. It prefers to bury its base in the sand or into the crevice of a rock for protection.
Drip acclimate for about 1.25 hours with the goal tripling the water volume in the bag during that time. Limited expose to air is recommended.
