Good morning to all. I need some advice cause I'm stressing out. So i finally bought some stock for my 40 gal breeder tank afters its been running for about a month. I got 2 clowns and an anemone. Well last night i noticed that that anemone was moving around its rock. Wake up this morning to see the anemone stuck inside my filter tube. I got it our from being stuck and put it on the sand. As I am watching it. There is still some movement from it. It started floating around so I turned of the wavemaker in the tank for now. Anybody has any ideas on how to bring this back from such a tragic accident. PLease help and thank you for your time.

Is it damaged? Anemone's will move quite a bit. My guess is that since your tank is so new it's not happy, also what type of lights are you running?

Water conditions are probably making it unhappy.

What type of nem determines where to place it. You can place it anywhere, but it will always move to where it wants to be!
