Colorado Sunburst Bubble Tip Anemone
These anemones are farmed locally and originate from the Elite Reef lineage. Known for their vibrant sunburst coloration, they thrive under strong lighting and medium water currents.
Bubble tip anemones are known to sting other corals, fish, and invertebrates. They naturally host a variety of clownfish, including Amphiprion ocellaris, in both wild and captive environments.
When no clownfish are present or actively hosting, offer meaty foods such as mysis shrimp or brine shrimp to maintain health and vitality.
Caution is advised when keeping this species with other Bubble Tip Anemone (BTA) strains due to potential aggression and stinging behavior.

The anemone has been very active and colorful since arrival. It’s been hosting a small clownfish that stays close to it. I keep it in a well-lit tank with medium flow. I feed it mysis shrimp weekly and it seems to thrive.
Penelope May –
It’s a beautiful addition to my reef tank. The color is vibrant and it responds well to lighting. I did have to separate it from another BTA strain after a few days due to stinging behavior.

Great quality and healthy from day one. I’ve been feeding it meaty foods regularly and it’s grown steadily. The clownfish it hosts is very active and seems happy.
