Heteractis crispa, commonly called the Sebae anemone or leather anemone, is a large, striking sea anemone native to the Indo-Pacific region. These anemones are known for their leathery tentacles, vibrant colors (ranging from white to brown, green, purple, or combinations), and their symbiotic relationship with certain clownfish species. They can grow up to 50 cm in diameter and are popular in aquariums.
Key Features of Heteractis crispa:
Appearance: Large, with a leathery, wavy body and long tentacles. The tentacles often have blue or purple tips.
Color: Varied, including shades of white, beige, brown, green, purple, or combinations.
Symbiosis: Forms symbiotic relationships with various anemonefish species, providing shelter and protection.
Habitat: Found in shallow, tropical waters, especially on coral reefs.
Diet: Predatory, feeding on small fish and invertebrates. They can also obtain food from algae that live within them.
Size: Can reach a diameter of 20-50 cm.

Pulsing Xenia (Heteroxenia fuscescens) is a soft coral known for its rhythmic, pulsing movement and feathery polyps. It has long, sturdy stalks adorned with feathery tentacles that pulse, opening and closing in a "pumping" fashion, adding movement to the reef tank. Pulsing Xenia is a fast grower and a popular choice for reef tanks, both for beginners and experienced hobbyists.
Here's a more detailed description:
Appearance:
Stalks:
Pulsing Xenia features long, sturdy stalks.
Polyps:
The stalks are topped with feathery polyps (tentacles) that pulse in a rhythmic, opening and closing motion.
Colors:
Pulsing Xenia can come in a variety of colors, including lavender, cream, pink, and purple.
Growth:
It's known for its rapid growth rate, which can quickly cover rock surfaces.
Movement:
Pulsing:
The most distinctive feature of Pulsing Xenia is its rhythmic pulsing movement of the polyps, which can reach up to 40 pulses per minute.
Water Movement:
The pulsing action helps to create water movement around the coral, aiding in nutrient exchange.
Other Notable Features:
Fast Growth:
Pulsing Xenia is a fast-growing coral, making it a good choice for beginners who are looking for a coral that will quickly fill up the tank.
Easy Care:
It's relatively easy to care for, thriving in a variety of reef tank conditions.
Photosynthesis:
Pulsing Xenia is a photosynthetic coral, meaning it can produce its own food through sunlight, but it also absorbs nutrients from the water.
Propogation:
It can be easily propagated in captivity
Homophyllia bowerbanki orange is a coral known for its encrusting growth form, often with a central, prominent corallite. Red Bowerbanki, a variety of Homophyllia bowerbanki, typically displays shades of pale gray, brown, or rust, often with a marbled or mottled appearance. It's not fleshy and has irregularly shaped, cerioid corallites. While typically smaller, they can grow to over 1.5 meters in diameter.

Hymenocera picta XL- 75 eur
commonly known as the harlequin shrimp, is a species of saltwater shrimp found at coral reefs in the tropical Indian and Pacific Oceans. It is usually considered the only species in the genus Hymenocera, but some split it into two species: H. picta from the central and east Pacific, where the spots are deep pinkish-purple with a yellow edge, and H. elegans from the Indian Ocean and west Pacific, where the spots are more brownish and have a blue edge. They reach about 5 cm (2.0 in) in length, live in pairs, and feed exclusively on starfish, including crown-of-thorns starfish. They do seem to prefer smaller, more sedentary starfish, but as these generally are not sufficiently numerous for their needs, they commonly attack crown-of-thorns starfish, both reducing its consumption of coral while under attack, and killing it within a few days.
Description
The harlequin shrimp is usually cream colored or white with occasional spots. Around the Pacific Ocean, many of these shrimp have red spots, while the Indian Ocean shrimp typically have purple spots; the Hawaiian H. picta has purple and red spots on its body, the shrimp has two walking legs on each side and large claws, or chelipoda. The claws and eyes appear to look flattened and thin. On its head, the shrimp has "petal-like sensory antennules" to smell out prey. Its body usually reaches up to 5 cm (2 in), and the male is slightly smaller than the female.
Habitat
These shrimp are typically found in Hawaii through the Indo-Pacific below the intertidal zone on coral reefs. They prefer temperatures of 72–82°F, but are very rare because of the changing coral reefs.
Diet
Harlequin shrimp usually only feed on starfish. They are very skilled at flipping over a slow starfish on its back, and eating the tube feet and soft tissues until it reaches the central disk. They, usually one female and one male, use their claws to pierce the tough skin and feeding legs to help them maneuver the starfish. Sometimes, the starfish will shed the arm that the shrimp attacked and regrow it, but it is usually too wounded to regrow. They may also feed on sea urchins, because they have tube feet, as well, but that is rare and only if starfish are not available.
Behavior/reproduction
The harlequin shrimp moves at a very slow pace and in waves. It also may have toxins from its prey (the starfish), which could make it distasteful and potentially dangerous for predators. The shrimp also moves its claws almost constantly. Females are larger and have colored abdominal plates unlike the males. The female produces between 100 and 5,000 eggs per season depending on environmental factors. The male and female are often seen together in the wild, and work together to not only reproduce, but also to forage.
Lifetime Warranty LEDs and Lenses
Nope, we’re not crazy, we're confident. LIFETIME WARRANTY on all LED's and lenses. Yes, you won't even lose one single diode. Introducing the DBR lens (Diffusion By Refraction). Made from silicone. Never burn, never fade and with exceptional color rendition and diffusion without the loss of PAR.
Natural Daylight Simulation
Built specifically for high-end planted aquariums, the Aquascaper variant recreates the subtle transitions and balanced spectrum found in natural freshwater environments. Instead of static intensity points, the system smoothly shifts throughout the day to mimic the soft progression of morning light, peak midday brightness, and evening tones — enhancing depth, colour contrast, and the natural appearance of plants, wood, and stone. Designed to complement Nature Aquarium style layouts, it delivers a more immersive and realistic viewing experience while supporting consistent, healthy plant growth.

"Krill Fine" is a frozen fish food consisting of finely chopped krill, ideal for smaller or more finicky fish like adult Discus, or for use as a base mix for larger species. It is a high-protein, nutrient-rich food that is a natural source of omega-3 fatty acids and astaxanthin, which enhances color. The fine size makes it easy to digest and encourages a feeding response in many fish.
Nutritional information
Protein: High in protein, typically around 50-55% dry matter.
Fat: Contains essential lipids, with up to 25% of the fat content consisting of omega-3 fatty acids.
Vitamins and minerals: A natural source of vitamins, carotenoids like astaxanthin (which enhances color), and other antioxidants.
Chitin: A good source of chitin, which can provide roughage.
Benefits
Enhances color:
The natural carotenoids, particularly astaxanthin, help intensify the red and other colors in fish.
Stimulates feeding:
The fine texture is a natural and appealing food source that can trigger an immediate feeding response.
Promotes health:
The high protein and essential fatty acids support overall health, energy levels, and proper growth.
Versatile:
Can be used as a staple food or as an additive for larger species in products like spod and stick mixes.
How to use
Store the frozen krill in a freezer and only thaw the amount you need for one feeding.
You can thaw it in a small amount of aquarium water before feeding, or in some cases, feed it while still frozen.
Only feed what your fish can consume within a few minutes to avoid soiling the aquarium.
