anemone keeps walking
well it seems everynight i go to bed and shut the tank light off and wake up the next morning my bubble tip has walked to a new position, the first night he moved a couples inches down to another rock, and than this morning i found him at the bottom of my tank in the sand? how can i prevent him from walking around to much and getting sucked up into my powerhead..
its only been two days since i got him, so i plan on feeding him tonight.

I dont think there is a way to make him station. He will eventually stay once he found a good location but if something happens to tank like a new flow or new light, he is gonna walk again.
I would love to hear if someone knows how to make him stay in one spot. |

lol its pretty neat to watch him, he kinda rolls about. But im a little un easy with him movin around about the tank.
i guess i need to do more research for lighting, so far i have been running my t5's for about 10-12hrs a day and then just natural to no light at all.

Mine was in the same place for months and then anbout 3 months it split. now both move around a fair bit it seems they can't find a nice comfy place. for what its worth they are both growing and seem very healthy.

and you dont have any concerns about it possibly getting sucked up by the powerhead? it seems to be nice a healthy looking, bubble tips look great, i kinda feel bad though, its walking around and all my clowns wont leave him alone. lol

It sucks when it starts to move. My bubble rose tip anemone end up getting sucked up by the powerhead. Also killing most of coral that on his path.
