Has anyone heard of or no anything about a waratah anemone. I found a little info on-line but nothing about keeping them in an aquarium.

Hmm, you don't see them too often anymore, but they are non photosynthetic, so they need to be fed often. They also prefer slightly cooler water and high flow/aeration. This anemone is also more prone to move around and has a potent sting, as well, so they are capable fish eaters.

How large do they get? I can't see the one I have eating any fish. It's only about the size of a dime or a little larger. The LFS I use has had several recently. I'm typically not an impulse buyer, but it happens.

about 4-5 cm, so quite small.
