Get interesting information about sea anemone
Sea anemone belongs to the group of water dwelling. It is closely related to Hydra, tube dwelling anemones, and corals. It spends most of the time at one place but some have ability to move. They attach their body to the rocks. Some of them bury themselves in the mud. Its predators are sea stars, snails, fish and nudibranchs. There are about thousand different types of sea anemone found in throughout the oceans.
Anemones which can move have ability to move only for three to four inches daily. It eats small fish and shrimp. It captures its prey with its deadly stinging tentacles known as nematocysts. They catch their food using the tentacles. These tentacles are located on the top of its body. It is mainly found in many different habitats i.e. in the low currents and high currents.
It is considered as the flower of the deep sea. It looks like plants. They are actually meat eating animals. They are of different sizes and colors. The color range of anemone is from white or pale yellow to red. The internal anatomy of this sea animal is complex. The mouth of the anemone opens up into a flattened pharynx. Its mouth is slit and it bears a grove at either one or two ends.
It runs for about two thirds of the length of the body before opening into the gastro vascular cavity. The gastro vascular cavity functions as the stomach for anemone. It has a single opening to the outside which has dual function of the mouth and anus. The undigested matter is excreted through it.
The diet of sea anemones includes Deep Sea Fish, plankton, amphipods, isopods and shrimp. There are available in varying sizes ranging from five centimeters to seventeen centimeters. The different types of sea anemone are zoanthid, white plumed, giant green, aggregated, strawberry, tube, painted, sand rose and white spotted rose.
It has also been found out that pieces of sea anemones can turn into new sea anemones. There are separate sexes in sea anemones. Some species are hermaphrodites. Reproduction can take place sexually or asexually. They reproduce asexually, by pedal laceration, budding and binary fission.
Some anemones have symbiotic relationship with some hermit crabs. However, the sexual reproduction takes place when the male releases a sperm. It also stimulates the female to release eggs. These eggs or sperms are released through mouth. Once this process is done, then fertilization occurs.
This is done when either the crab gets attached to the anemone or they themselves attach to the hermit crab. Majority of the species inhabit tropical reefs. There are some species that are well adapted to the intertidal reefs, sand and cold waters.
There are many theories which show that this relationship is beneficial for the hermit crab and anemone. It provides protection from the stinging cells of some anemones which can be quite potent. It is also beneficial for the anemone because it can eat from the food which the crab did not eat.

Chalice and Zoanthid coral for 10 gallon tank?
Will Chalice and Zoanthid coral do well in a 10 gallon reef tank? I have T5HO (12K and 420nm Actnic) lighting with live rock setup and running for 3 months now. Also can I leave the moonlight led on for 24 hrs and the T5HO running for almost 12 hrs a day?
i run my light about 12 hours a day without algae problems. I also leave the moonlights on a lot of tanks 24/7 with no harm.
On the zoas make sure to get ones that do not need more than moderate lighting (some need very strong light).
