Neon Yellow Japanese Anemone
(Halcurias carlgreni)
Halcurias carlgreni Anemone is best suited for well-established aquariums with stable water parameters and ample live rock for secure attachment. This species prefers rocky substrates and shaded crevices and may reposition itself within the aquarium to find an ideal location. It features slender tentacles surrounding a central oral disc. Feed small meaty foods such as mysis shrimp, finely chopped seafood, or planktonic foods. Halcurias carlgreni does not heavily rely on photosynthesis and thrives under low to moderate lighting. Invertebrates do not tolerate copper-based medications. This small, cryptic anemone is occasionally found as a hitchhiker on live rock. It does not host clownfish and is appreciated for its delicate appearance and interesting behavior.
