More about Sebae Anemone
The Sebae Anemone (Heteractis crispa) is a captivating marine invertebrate known for its long, flowing tentacles and vibrant colors, typically ranging from white to shades of tan, green, or blue. This anemone thrives in temperatures between 24-28°C and a pH range of 8.1-8.4, reaching a maximum size of up to 40 cm in diameter. Preferring moderate to high lighting and moderate water flow, it often anchors itself in rock crevices or sandy substrates. The Sebae Anemone is popular in reef aquariums for its symbiotic relationship with clownfish, providing mutual protection and benefits. Despite its beauty, it is considered challenging to care for, requiring stable water conditions and proper lighting to thrive. While not rare, it is less commonly available in the aquarium trade compared to other anemones.
