    Thanks so much! I swear it keeps swelling larger every day! Spot fed it tonight after I fed the fish, really neat to watch it eat. :)

    It hasn't moved much at all since I put it in the tank, just expanded out to full size, which I'd say is just over a foot, but man is it on the move today! The anemone has moved about 1' up the rocks since morning! It started getting close to the overflow inlet so I pointed a return jet just under the overflow to keep it away. Hopefully it will settle soon, I don't want to keep worrying about it wandering. It should be getting more light where it's at now.
