Characteristics:

• Type : Condylactis gigantea (Anemone)
• Color : White, blue, yellow, green, pink or purple – depending on the species and lighting conditions
• Size : Up to 30 cm in diameter (depending on conditions and growth)
• Growth form : Flickering, tentacle-like structures that spread in all directions
• Light requirement : Medium to high (intense lighting brings out the colors)
• Current : Moderate to strong (the anemone prefers a moderate current to keep its tentacles moving)

Care instructions:

The Condylactis gigantea is a relatively demanding anemone that thrives in a well-maintained reef aquarium with stable conditions. It prefers good lighting and moderate to strong currents to keep its tentacles moving. A sufficient supply of nutrients through the water and occasional feeding of small plankton particles or fish flesh will ensure its health.

Because this anemone can form a symbiotic relationship with clownfish, it's an excellent choice for aquariums that house clownfish. The clownfish protects the anemone, while the anemone provides shelter and helps it find food. However, keep in mind that the Condi anemone likes to move around the aquarium and may seek out a permanent location, requiring occasional relocation.

Special features:

• Symbiosis with clownfish : Like many other anemones, the Condi anemone also forms a symbiosis with clownfish, which enrich the aquarium and enhance their lively activity.
• Color variations : Their colors range from bright blue to soft yellow, making them a visual asset to any aquarium.
• Agile Beauty : The Condi Anemone is known for moving around the aquarium until it finds a suitable spot. It prefers stable conditions and a good food source.
• Easy to care for, but sensitive to poor conditions : It is relatively hardy as long as the water parameters are stable and sufficient nutrients are available.
