![]() You're brave putting an anemone in a reef! I hear that the carpets tend to not move around much though, like the Bubble tips do.

![]() Mine never really have moved around much. As they've grown they've shifted around a little, or picked a neighbouring rock that was larger, and so on. I think I've also noticed them move a little if I go a little too long between feedings. But rarely more than 6". Nowadays I just feed a tiny bit of mysis every day or two and that seems to keep them placated. I think if you can get them in a spot where they're happy (flow-wise and lighting-wise), they tend to stay put.

![]() Okay we'll. Here is an update. He is now 1/4 on the rock and the rest of his foot is on the top of the sand. I am having issues with getting the flow right. He seems to just be moving to the left and not counter current wise. Mouth is a little open now about the size of a quarter i guess and he looks like he is losing some zooentelle(sp). Looks like little black seeds coming out of his mouth? Not sure what that is about. But no inside showing at all. Generally looking okay just gotta get the flow right
![]() And no i'm not worried about the sps. Currently they are on the other side of the tank and i don't think he is gonna go to far. He has a brand new bulb above him and lots of rocks for him to pick and choose from.

![]() Ok, so when that zooxanthellae comes out-does that mean the anemone is done for? I have had a couple of them that have had that brown stringy stuff come out of them and the next thing I know-they are melted! I've tried to find out more about this whole process and what is going on, but seem to missing the mark. Anyone want to impart some of their knowledge?
(PS-I hope this doesn't count as a hi-jack...apologies if it does.) ![]()
