Banana Core Rock Flower Anemone

About this invertebrate

Banana Core Rock Flower Anemone is a reef aquarium anemone that adds natural movement and a focal point to aquascapes. Like many rock flower anemones, it relies on both light and food for energy, making it a practical choice for hobbyists who want a dynamic display animal in a compatible saltwater setup.

Features:

• Creates a strong visual centerpiece as the anemone expands and contracts with light and water conditions
• Uses photosynthesis from symbiotic algae, helping power its energy needs when provided with appropriate aquarium lighting
• Can benefit from targeted feeding with small meaty foods in addition to light-supported nutrition
• Generally prefers stable water conditions and careful placement on rock where it can settle comfortably
• Possesses stinging cells that can affect nearby tankmates, so spacing and compatibility matter
• Helps add natural behavior to reef tanks, including occasional drifting or “walking” to find preferred flow and lighting

Specifications:

• Scientific name: UNVERIFIED
• Care level (general guidance): Moderate to advanced; best for aquarists with stable reef conditions
• Temperament / compatibility (general guidance): Can sting other animals; keep mindful of distance from corals, invertebrates, and smaller tankmates
• Lighting (general guidance): Moderate to high light to support photosynthesis
• Water flow (general guidance): Moderate, with gentle circulation; avoid direct blasts
• Placement (general guidance): Attach/settle on stable rock in the chosen flow and light zone; minimize frequent moving
• Diet (general guidance): Light-supported nutrition plus occasional targeted feeding with small meaty foods
