Actinia is a genus of sea anemones commonly found in intertidal zones. They are known for their bright colors and bead-like appearance when closed. In the aquarium, they require moderate lighting and water flow, and can be fed a variety of meaty foods. Actinia species often host a range of symbiotic relationships, notably with clownfish, which can add dynamic interactions to a reef tank.
