Product Description

The Color has a wavy appearance, and lives singly, in the
shallow waters of the Central Pacific, Indo Pacific and Red Sea.
Normally found on rocky reefs with soft muddy or sandy substrate it can
attain a size of up to three feet in diameter. This anemone is also
referred to as the Carpet Anemone, Gigantic Sea Anemone, or Giant Carpet
Anemone. It has relatively short, tapered tentacles with a milder sting
than its close relative Stichodactyla haddoni. The  Anemone
and can be distinguished from Stichodactyla haddoni by the rows of spots
on the underside of the oral disc which stop at the column.
This
anemone serves as a “host” for many types of clownfish in the wild
including: Amphiprion clarkii, A. perideraion, A. akindynos, A.
rubrocinctus, A.barberi, A. bicinctus, A. ocellaris, and A. percula.
The  Anemone requires a tank with very strong lighting and
strong water movement. The aquarium should have a variety of sandy and
rocky locations as this animal oftentimes can move about and seek refuge
in a place it prefers. This species of  Anemone prefers to bury
its foot into the sandy bottom at the base of a rock, and it will
oftentimes attach itself to the bottom of the aquarium glass, where its
column is completely protected under a rock and in the sand for
protection.
best to try and dig out an area of the sand bed at the base of a large
display. Doing so will allow the anemone time to settle in, so its pedal
disc or foot can adhere to the rock where it is placed. Once in place,
carefully move some sandy substrate around the column and increase the
flow rate back to the normal output.
