Default Tony's on de island, mon.

I housed Tony's green carpet for a while, and it occupied about the lower 1/3 of a 50 gal. It put its foot down through 4 inches of sand and stuck onto the bottom glass. It did nestle up against some rocks, much like the blue one above.

We wore long gloves to move it in, and a few tentacles stuck and tore off - very difficult to handle carefully. The acclimation bucket went right in the tank, and we slid the anemone out.

I considered using a short piece of large-diameter pvc pipe to contain the foot and keep wandering to a minimum, but it pretty much stayed put without it.

What size is this one you're getting? Looks cute.
