So we got a rather large rose bubble tip Anemone from the Coral reef, a split from the big one in their display tank.
I love this girl, so beautiful and cool

But I am pretty sure she killed my i-dunno-what-this-is-but-its-cool coral I got from the swap this morning.

Now she's on the move again and moving towards all my new corals.
So... Guess it's time to start moving stuff around out of her way.

I love her and hate her at the same time.

I love nems but hate the fact that they can move. If they'd only stay put but of course they don't. My last nem was a mini carpet and I put her down on the sand bed where she got moderate flow and I target fed her. She stayed there for months and then one morning, low and behold she has moved and parked her carcass right up against my blue crocea clam!!!! Ahhhh, I was horrified. I used a pin and pricked her foot everyday for 2 weeks trying to encourage her to move somewhere else. She never did but the clam didn't seem stressed so I finally gave up and let her stay.
 
I love nems i have 2 green BTAS and my clown love them most.

I purchased a rose bubble tip nem about 1.5 years ago and it has turned into several in my tank. They generally split and remain in pretty much the same place so only love here, they do get big though!
