Split anemone

[brian762]

I am planning on buying my first RBTA this weekend (fathers day present) :beer: The one i am getting was a split from another. I read that splits are more hardier. Is that true?

Anemone clones usually do better because they have already adapted to captivity. Wild caught nems have a hard time adjusting to our tanks.

Looks pretty good to me. It may look different in your lighting FYI, like maybe less transparent in the tentacles or brighter colors. But that doesn't mean anything it still seems healthy from the picture.
