Rose bubble tip anemones get their name from the way their tentacles tend to expand into a bubble shape when the anemone is at rest. The anemones can extend their tentacles much further, however, especially if they're trying to maximize the light they are receiving.

These anemones are colorful, hardy, do well in captivity, and as a matter of fact will reproduce quiet readily by splitting asexually down the middle when they reach mature size. They are easily accepted by clownfish, and all in all an excellent specimen for the reef aquarium
