How BIG will it get???

[mia1974]

My goodness, I have only had this ritteri anemone for about 1.5 months and he has grown from 1 foot to 1.5 feet wide!! Is this how fast he will grow from now on?? Is this normal? I feed it about 4 times a week alternating between vit. soaked silversides (about an inch worth) and formula 2 (same amount). Should I cut back? I have dedicated 1/3 of my 180 gal to this guy, but I am just wondering how large he could get and how quickly...maybe I should have bought a 300 gal!! If any of you anemone keepers out there could enlighten me I would be most grateful

Thanx in advance.

Most large anemones will not expand completely till they have become settled in and happy. Then a 50% increase is not surprising. You don't really need to feed it so often though. I feed mine 2 to 3 times a week.
