Anemone Rock Mushroom (Fungiidae Coral) (Anemonia sp.)

(Also known as Rock Anemone, Mushroom Anemone, or Disc Anemone)

Overview

The Anemone Rock Mushroom (Anemonia sp.) is a captivating and hardy Corallimorpharian (mushroom-like anemone) that bridges the gap between true anemones and soft corals. It features flat, fleshy oral discs covered with numerous tentacles that resemble a miniature sea anemone. Colours vary widely — including green, brown, pink, blue, and metallic hues — often with fluorescent tips under actinic lighting. Unlike stony corals, Anemonia lacks a hard skeleton, allowing its soft body to flex and move gracefully with the current. Highly adaptable and visually striking, it’s an excellent addition for aquarists seeking motion and colour in shaded or low-flow areas of the aquarium.

Origin

Native to the Indo-Pacific region, including the Great Barrier Reef, Coral Sea, Fiji, Tonga, Indonesia, and the Red Sea. Commonly found attached to rocks, reef flats, and lagoon slopes, often in partially shaded areas with low to moderate light and current.

Feeding

The Anemone Rock Mushroom is photosynthetic, housing zooxanthellae that provide much of its nutrition. However, supplemental feeding helps maintain growth, colour, and reproduction. Feed 2–3 times per week with:

  • Mysis or enriched brine shrimp
  • Finely chopped seafood (shrimp, clam, or fish)
  • Marine plankton or coral foods

Target feeding is recommended — gently deliver food near the oral disc when tentacles are extended.

Lighting

Low to moderate lighting. Prefers subdued, diffused illumination similar to soft corals and mushroom species.

  • PAR range: 50–150 ¬µmol/m¬≤/s
  • Ideal placement in shaded or indirect light zones.
  • Blue and actinic spectrums enhance fluorescence, especially in green and pink varieties.
Water Flow

Low to moderate, indirect flow. Gentle water movement allows the tentacles to sway naturally while preventing detritus buildup. Excessive flow may cause the coral to close or detach from the substrate.

Placement
  • Place on lower rockwork or substrate, ideally in shaded or low-flow areas.
  • The coral attaches naturally to hard surfaces and may slowly spread by budding or tissue division.
  • Ensure it has room to expand without touching neighbouring corals or anemones.
  • Avoid placing directly under strong light or heavy current.
Tank Mates

Reef safe with caution. Compatible with:

  • Peaceful reef fish (clownfish, gobies, wrasses, tangs, etc.)
  • Invertebrates such as shrimp, snails, and hermit crabs
  • Soft corals and mushroom corals at safe distances

Avoid:

  • Aggressive stinging corals (e.g., Euphyllia, Galaxea, Hydnophora)
  • Large angelfish, butterflyfish, or puffers that may nip at tentacles
Aggression

Moderate.Anemonia can sting nearby corals with its tentacles. It is best positioned away from sensitive species, as it may spread and outcompete slower-growing neighbours.

Experience Level

Beginner to intermediate. The Anemone Rock Mushroom is hardy and adaptable, suitable for aquarists of most experience levels. It thrives under a variety of conditions and rewards consistent care with vibrant colour and natural movement.

Water Parameters
  • Temperature: 24–27°C (75–81°F)
  • pH: 8.1–8.4
  • Salinity: 1.024–1.026 SG
  • Alkalinity (dKH): 8–12
  • Calcium: 380–450 ppm
  • Magnesium: 1250–1350 ppm
  • Nitrate: <10 ppm (tolerant up to 15 ppm)
  • Phosphate: <0.05 ppm
  • Tank Size: Minimum 50 litres (13 gallons); ideal for nano reefs or larger mixed systems
Reef Compatibility

Reef safe with caution. The Anemone Rock Mushroom adds flowing motion and brilliant colour to reef tanks. While peaceful toward most invertebrates, it can sting nearby corals, so spacing and placement are key. Once settled, it’s long-lived, resilient, and a visually dynamic addition to the reef.

Hard to Destroy
Style: Bunny
My puppy hasn’t been able to destroy it yet. All other toys have only lasted about 10 minutes.

Favorite fetch
We have a 70 lb Aussie and a 13 lb Havanese who compete with each other to fetch toys. This hedgehog is their favorite, largely due to the loud assertive squeak. Our big dog is a chewer and has a history of getting to any squeaker in a toy, once nearly choking when successfully removing one from a smaller toy. She still tries to chew on this toy, going straight for the nose but has not yet gotten to the squeaker which is large enough that I don't believe would be a choking hazard if she did get to it. No soft toy is indestructible, but compared to other plush toys, this is more durable. Once the nose has been chewed off, I have simply hand stitched the hole closed and from then on she's no longer interested in chewing through it. Have run through the wash and comes out fine. When one eventually wears out I order a replacement and the 2 puppies compete once again over ownership.
