I have a friend who is interested to rear sea anemones in his marine tank. He has absolutely no experience in keeping them so is interested to learn more.
He would like to know what species would be suitable as a "starter" species and also what type of coral or rock would be best for them to latch on to.
Also, what type of food; pellets or live shrimp or fish? Would the sea anemones attack any fish in the tank? He intends to work his way to having clownfish (yes, like Nemo!) in his aquarium as well, eventually.
Would the sea anemones be dangerous (due to their stinging tentacles) if he were to accidentally touch one while cleaning the tank?
