📜 Backstory
Offered as the 'Happy Red Tipped Ritteri Anemone' by Blue Zoo Aquatics. It is a wild-collected natural color form, not an aquacultured line. Red-toned magnifica are prized over standard brown imports, and vendors price them as a step up from the common tan pieces.
Keeper tips for this variant
Strong lighting is essential to maintain the red pigment; under weak light these warm tones fade toward brown, so keep it high in the tank near the most intense light field.
