WHAT ARE SEA PENS

clem — Mon, 07 May 2012 20:44:01 +0000

Sea pens are very alike to anemones although distinct in appearance,they are only seen in the aquarium trade occasionally,and hobbyists may be unaware of what they are and how to maintain them.Sea pens have a tubular body the upper portion is supported by an internal calcium spine,resembling a quill.Like anemones,they possess a foot that enables the animal to burrow and anchor itself safely in turbulent water.Sea pens are quite in the day only showing white yellow or orange column protruding from the substrate.As darkness comes,the animal covers its body in a mass of feathery polyps ready to feed on water borne food particles.

IS THE STING OF AN ANEMONE DANGEROUS

clem — Thu, 02 Feb 2012 11:12:10 +0000

Yes. Carpet amemones and tube anemones all possess ferocious stings and should not be touched with bare skin,particularly on sesitive areas,such as the forearms or backs of hands.Heteractis species may also produce a stinging reaction.In addition some people may be allergic to the poison reacting with rapidly spreading rash or,in rare cases,anaphylatic shock.Both require immediate hospital attention.

clem — Mon, 03 Oct 2011 10:59:47 +0000

No the moving of an Anemone will destroy its foot no matter how careful you are,and it may simpley moveback again.Sometimes anemones settle on the front of the aquarium glass,in which case a move can be justified.However,the foot must be eased off very gently.

ARE ANEMONES SUITABLE FOR NEWCOMERS

They require excellent water conditions and intense lighting of the correct quality.It is best for newcomers to gain valuable experience with less sensitive marine creatures,preferably fish alone,before moving onto more sensitive invertebrates such as anemones.
