The bubble anemone has a wide distribution area and is naturally inhabited by a variety of anemonefish in a symbiotic relationship. However, most anemonefish offspring grow up without an anemone. Therefore, it can take a few weeks or even months for them to “accept” an anemone.
Eventually, though, every anemonefish enters an anemone. Porcelain crabs (Neopetrolithes) and various small shrimp also accept them as symbiotic partners.
With additional feeding, the Entacmaea will divide periodically. They can also be easily fragmented with a sharp knife — in this case, divide the mouth opening as precisely as possible.
A common concern is whether the anemone will migrate, entangling other valuable corals on its way through the tank and possibly ending up in a pump. To prevent this, it is important to understand what an anemone needs to feel comfortable and settle in one place.
First, its foot must be safe in a sheltered place, such as a small cave. It also needs sufficient light because it has symbiotic zooxanthellae that it feeds on. Finally, it prefers a place where it can get its share of the fish’s daily feeding.
In our experience, once an anemone finds such a place, it will stay there permanently.

The small Zoanthus anemones come in a wide variety of color combinations and are often given fashionable names. They fluoresce very strongly, and their colors stand out most under blue or blue-heavy light.
Crustacean anemones generally contain the toxin palytoxin. However, Zoanthus contains very low concentrations of this toxin, so unlike certain gray-green representatives of the genus Palythoa, no cases of poisoning have yet been reported.
