I have been waiting 2 months to get this crab... and just so happened to snatch up this beautiful Sebae... most of the LFS have em for about $50+.... got him for just $17!!!! whoop whoop. :D

I really like the white ones but read they are difficult to keep. I had one and it did not do very well. I would suggest getting a sebae clown fish for a host. They should do much better with a fish.

yup, well just about any clown will host a sebae. They are VERY well liked amongst clown fishes. The crab will be transported to the nano reef to safe gaurd in the little hatiain i have in there. Then i will get a nice clown for that anenome in the 55... I didnt want to take it home today, but the dickhead manager wouldnt let me put deposit on the guys and pick them up friday when i wanted to... :evil: I placed him up about 1/2 way in the tank away from my bigger hermits whom i think killed my LTA a month ago... he should be fine light wise, etc

Cool. Good luck with your new aqusition.

when an anemone is white like that it has expelled it's symbiotic algae. this happens all the time from stress due to collection and shipping. Hopefully with care you can bring it back, but dont get your hopes up.
also they are very delicate and like to be on the sand. they can tear easily on the rock. if it goes on the rock on its own leave it but I would put it on the sand.

Actually thats not always true, i think it might just be white becuase of the flash, my anemone is actually white/brownish/green but becuase of the flash it looks white and its a sebae as well

both have taken to a nice spot in the rocks, one is pretty bright white, the other is more of a greenish hue to it.
