Reading the forums I see comments such as wow your anemone is really bleached!

Mine is a yucky brown and the pictures I see here are that some look like a soft pink!


How does one go about bleaching a anemone?

Is it safe?

bleaching is bad, it happens when he animals become stressed and are without food and light.



if you want a colorful anemone you have to buy it when it is colorful and healthy.

EEEEEK!
I hear that perhaps bleaching is not healthy at all.

So pea green is not good at all. I have to make sure he turns a full dark vibrant green. I'll see if I can get that marco rock sooner than later so they get a bit more light. This means I'll have to check water quality more often.
