my stingey anemone

my anemone will not sit still he looks healthy but will not stay in the same place for 3 weeks this has ben going on and im getting frustrated. any advice. my othe one hase ben in the same place for 8 months now.

 

Your anemone will move around the tank looking for a spot that it likes...current and lighting to its liking. Eventually, it may find a spot it likes. It may also stay in a spot for a little while, only to move yet again.

 

yeah, that's the thing about anemones'. They move until they are happy, even then they will still move again. That's why I got rid of my Condy (plus he kept trying to eat my $24 Cleaner Shrimp!)That's how they meet untimely deaths in a tank, the move to close to the powerhead.

 

Yup...Anemones are the tough guys of the sea...they move wherever they want, whenever they want hah.

 

Until they hit a powerhead. :-[

 

Ha...yup my little RBTA picked a fight with a powerhead...he back back in action in a week or two.

 

Now that I think about it, I don't think I will ever buy an anemone again.

 

Thats why anemones do not make good tank inhabitants when you keep corals ..They move and go where they want. Depending on the type some can corralled a little with rocks to a point..And some just like to roam.

 

Yup...my anemone decided to grow...er expand...and kill a colony of zoos that was next to it. Luckily there are still some daughter colonies in the tank.

Now that anemone split...I am a bit worrysome.
