Condylactis anemones, commonly known as pink tip anemones (or ""condys"" by some of the collectors), are one of the most common and popular anemones from Florida.  There are two species of condylactis in the Caribbean, Condylactis gigantea, which is commonly called the Haitian condylactis, and Condylactis passiflora, which is most commonly called the Florida condylactis.

The Florida condylactis tend to have less intense colors than the Haitian anemones, but we pick out the most colorful ones available for our online customers, so we're sure you won't be disappointed with them. When fully inflated these will have a body that is about the size of a tennis ball and tentacles that may be as long as 6" or more.  Like most shallow water corals and anemones, they harbor symbiotic algae in their tissues and actually derive most of their nutritional requirements from the algae, thus they are considered photosynthetic.  They can and should also be fed some sort of supplemental solid food, such as bits of fish, shrimp, clams, or squid, and my wife feeds the one in our home tank standard marine pellet food, so they aren't picky. 

 

Most fish and invertebrates quickly figure out not to mess with anemones and they can peacefully coexist together.  Seahorses don't seem to figure it out quickly enough though, so I would not recommend mixing the two.
