Lime Green Carpet Anemone – Stichodactyla haddoni

Overview:
The Lime Green Carpet Anemone is a stunning large anemone, prized for its brilliant lime-green coloration and dense, carpet-like tentacles. Its vibrant hue and size make it a dramatic centerpiece in reef aquariums, while offering a natural home for clownfish species.

Origin:
Native to the Indo-Pacific, usually found on sandy bottoms and reef edges in shallow waters.

Feeding:
Carnivorous – consumes meaty marine foods such as silversides, shrimp, chopped fish, and frozen preparations, while also sustaining itself with energy from symbiotic zooxanthellae under strong lighting.

Tank Mates:
Pairs well with clownfish, peaceful reef-safe fish, and hardy invertebrates. Avoid sessile corals or delicate invertebrates near its reach, as its sting is strong.

Aggression:
Highly territorial – powerful stinging cells can harm corals and smaller fish that venture too close. Provide space in the aquarium.

Experience Level:
Advanced aquarists – requires a mature, stable aquarium with strong lighting, moderate flow, and sandy substrate for anchoring.

Water Parameters:

• Temperature: 75–82°F (24–28°C)

• pH: 8.1–8.4

• Salinity: 1.023–1.026

• Minimum Tank Size: 75+ gallons
