I'm reasonably certain it would totally be impossible to glue an anemone down. It would be like trying to glue jello.

Just goes to show that any A$$ can open a pet store.

You could try to use PCV 2-3 inches high. Get PVC that is big enough so the Nem is comfy. Sometimes they stay in there...sometimes not lol. Nems will go wherever they darn well please. I have a purple nem that I've had for months and it still cruises the tank.

this is how they get you to buy more anemone. Lets assume that you success super-glue your anemone to the rock (which I highly doubt you can do it due to its slime), it will die then your LFS will tell you it is because of your water, so you need to buy water treatment, etc.. and then another anemone and try again. This is how they make money.

When i first started this hobby, i bought so many stuff from LFS that now looking back I should never bought. and this LFS is among the most reputable stores in town.

I am glad that you post your question here because lots of knowledgeable ppl on this forum that will give you a better advice than LFS.

Glue? damn I only know of one store that mighttell someone that, and it's in Sherwood Park.

Nems, rics and mushrooms can't be glued properly. for rics & mushrooms you can use a needle and thread.

Under no cirumstances should they ever glued.

You should know better, Brian
