    Purchased what I believe is a red or rose bubble tip anemone on Saturday. Got him to attach to a rock, he decided by Sunday morning to move to adjacent rock but it attached on the underside as the rock is raised about 2-3 inches off of sand bed. He is till attached upside down underneath this rock, start worrying or he is just acclimating? Assume he would move on his own.

    Do not worry give the Anemone a couple weeks to acclimate.

    Do you still have the MH lighting in your signature?

    Congrats on the purchase, a great Anemone to have.

    Maybe dim them if the Anemone does not make an appearance within the next week or two.

    +1 on giving it time. I've had one in my tank for a week or two and it can't seem to make up its mind. They search out the perfect spot apparently.

    I've had some stay in place for 4-6 weeks then move and move and move. Pain in the butt if you have a bunch of corals they sting along the way and in their new place.
