    if water conditions are right with high lighting it should grow fairly quick. i would GUESS about 6 months to get to a good size, if i am not mistaken anemonies never stop growing.

    Those are tulip anemones. I am not sure of the scientific name. I have a herd of them in my tank. They get to be about as big as a quarter in diameter. They grow pretty quick and split quickly. I started with 4 I think from Repto and now have around a dozen in about a year. They typecially stay in one place but will wander. They seem to have a pretty powerful sting. They have nuked a shroom and some zoas growing near them. I am trying to keep my population in control by trading them.

    see, i was wrong. i am by no means an anemone expert. but if the have a powerful sting then most clowns will avoid them.

    I can't imagine a clown in them. They are only the size of a quarter.
