Orange Ring Maxi Mini Carpet Anemone

About this invertebrate

Orange Ring Maxi Mini Carpet Anemone is a saltwater anemone for reef aquariums, typically grouped as a carpet anemone. It can add noticeable, natural movement and a striking “carpet” look to the tank, while also contributing to the reef’s food web as it captures prey and relies on its symbiotic nutrition. For aquarists, it’s often used as a centerpiece in a compatible, stable marine setup and can help create a more dynamic habitat on the substrate or rock where it settles.

Features:

• Carpet-anemone style tentacles provide active movement that’s easy to observe under good lighting.
• Uses a combination of light-driven nutrition and captured foods, so feeding supports long-term health once it acclimates.
• Generally prefers to anchor in a chosen spot; placing it correctly helps it feel secure and settle.
• Can release stinging cells if it contacts tankmates, so spacing and careful stocking matter.
• A reef-ready invertebrate that typically benefits from stable water quality and consistent conditions.

Specifications:

• Scientific name: UNVERIFIED
• Care level: Advanced (sensitive to stability and water quality)
• Temperament: Can be territorial; may harm or sting nearby animals
• Lighting (general guidance): Medium to high light to support symbiotic nutrition
• Water flow (general guidance): Moderate, avoiding strong direct blasting
• Placement (general guidance): Provide a stable spot on rock or sand where it can attach and remain undisturbed
• Diet: Light-supported nutrition plus supplemental meaty foods (offer after acclimation)
• Temperature (general guidance): Tropical reef range, typically ~24–26°C
• Salinity (general guidance): Marine reef salinity, typically ~1.023–1.026 SG
• pH (general guidance): Around 8.1–8.4
