So I had mine long tip anemone for like a year and he had his ups and downs and then he finally found his spot that he liked he stayed there for about like 2 months and then he just moved. I don't know if that's a normal behavior or anemone. I know they have like a weird personality sometimes but I'm just wondering to make sure.

Thank you
 
From what I’ve learned in the few months I’ve had them is they are unpredictable and worse than a toddler and do what they want when they want.
 
Yeah it is normal :) They like to move once in a while without a reason. ( I guess some sort of change in flow or lighting triggered it to let go of its spot
 
Ohh also my anatomy looks kind of like different and I don't know if it's normal for them to shed their tentacles the tips of their tentacles cuz I found one in the sand while I was cleaning up my tank because it moved and the mouth is like a little like his little bubbles in it a little bit. I don't know if you could help on that
