Order

Common name: Berried Anemones

Scientific name: Baerida

The order Baerida comprises a group of small, often overlooked anemones found in marine environments. These anemones are known for their hardy nature and ability to thrive in a variety of tank conditions, making them suitable for many reef aquariums. They typically prefer moderate lighting and water flow, and can reproduce asexually, which allows them to establish populations in the aquarium. Baerida species are not as colorful as their more popular counterparts, but they can add diversity and serve as a natural clean-up crew by consuming detritus and small particulates.
