QuestionI am new to this hobby. I've had fresh water tanks for years. I have a bubble tipped anemone which has been closing up. I'm wondering if this could be a sign that it is going to split....Is that possible???? Thanks Bob
AnswerHi Bob:
If a Bubble Tip Anemone is showing signs of remaining closed up for an extended period of time, it could mean there is a health issue, and perhaps it could be caused by insufficient lighting, water parameters or from not being fed. BTA's should be fed a minimum of 1 to 2 times a week.
However if it's healthy and none of the above are an issue, then yes absolutely it could be a sign that it's going to split. Often times they will split down the middle to make two anemones from one.
Thank you for the question.
I wish you much success with all your future saltwater aquarium endeavors.
