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.

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.
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.
Sand anemones locate their feet deep in the substrate,if disturbed,they can withdraw from sight very quickly.Condylactis gigantea is a Caribbean species that is colourful and less sensitive than many other anemones.coming from the tropical Atlantic it does not provide a natural home for Clownfish,recommended feeding system Aquaze Marine.
When feeding mushroom corals pieces of mussel, squid, or lancefish should be offered.Other smaller species may be fed on live or frozen rotifers,frozen fine zooplankton and the juices from other frozen fish foods.Liquid fry food and artificial subsitutes are not recommended as they may cause pollution.Many colonies will survive quite successfully without any other feeding
Happy Birthday Aquaze three years young. A big thank you to all customers old and new.Comming soon two new exciting products,the Aquaze Pond Filter Housing Cleaner and Aqua Boost Garlic Flakes available in all sizes will be out soon.
In common with many other sessile invertebrutes, colonies of mushroom corals are capable of reproducing by several methods.Division is an asexual procedure whereby an individual polyp will develop two or more separate mouths, finaily dividing into several animals. Sometimes, however, these animals will remain fused together giving the appearance of one animal with several mouths. Budding-off is another asexual practice commonly found in anemones. The term describes a method by which a mother polyp will bud off one, or several, small and identical young polyps.
