Overview

The Malu Sebae Anemone is a less common form of the Sebae Anemones with its longer tentacles, and colored tips.

Malu Sebae Anemone is a delicate anemone, and easily damaged. It can also be difficult to acclimate, so its care should only be attempted by the experienced aquarists. It prefers to have a sandy substrate allowing its base to be hidden from sight. It should not be placed on a rock. It requires strong lighting, moderate water flow, porous live rock, and a variety of sandy and rocky locations from which it can choose to live. It is a moderately difficult anemone to care for, but once acclimated, it can be very hardy.

It requires feeding with a diet consisting of pieces of fish, clams, shrimp, and other meaty foods once a week.

Approximate Purchase Size When Fully Expanded: Small: 2" to 3"; Small/Medium: 3" to 4"; Medium: 4" to 5", Large: 5" or larger
