    If you have very clean water the majano will not grow or spread very quickly IME.

    +1...Same concept with Aptaisia..I have had a single aptaisia in my 29 for about 9 months, it has stayed about .25" the entire time.

    As 2in10 said, if you do have clean water, i wouldnt mess with it,because if you do mess with it, it could go the complete wrong way and start spreading.

    How do anemones undergo sexual reproduction then? Do they broadcast spawn in the wild?

    They're asexual, they just divide into two. You can do this manually do if you are good at it by cutting them perfectly through the mouth and foot.
