I don't have pictures of these guys.but they are pretty typical looking, if you've saw one you've saw everyone of them.
I was in Stoney creek on the weekend taking my son to the war reenactment. Well dropping him off there not interested in that stuff. Hit the big als there and picked up the anemone crab and two sexy/anemone shrimp.

I guess I need an anemone now. But they are crazy expensive.

What's everyone's thoughts on these guys. Has anyone had good or bad experiences?

Well...one thing I can tell you...they don't stay where you put them in the tank. They move around until they find a spot they
like. I have a Bubbletip anenome and hope that some day my two clownfish will take to it. I didnt buy a Rose Bubbletip because they are too pricy. Mine is an opaque color and I paid $35.00 for it.( Aquariums By Design ) It seems to like a spot in behnd a rock, and no matter how many times I turn that rock around...it goes right back in behind again....so i gave up trying. Seems to be happy and when its fully out..I can at least see half of it! LOL! I feed it a little piece of raw shrimp once a week...other than that..thats about it..

so true, they go where they like.. I have a couple that will be going in the coral tank when it cycles and I am going to TRY and keep them in one spot.. I am going to take 2 plastic containers cut them in half and set it in the sand bed and put the nem's in them. hopefully they haven't learnt to climb yet..

I have tried several nems for my clowns and never had any luck with any of them. They all thrived but they had a habit of attaching to rock in weird positions where I couldn't see them and my clowns couldn't care less. They would also occasionally make a move over night and attach themselves to what seemed to be an even more awkward spot every time lol. My flame actually set up shop on top of zoas !!!
