Any feedback is welcome!
I’ve had a Condy anemone for a few months and he’s been doing great, but every now and again he’ll relocate.
Once I woke up and he was on top of a colony so I’m wondering how long does it typically take for anemone to harm a coral? What’s the proper way to separate the anemone and coral?

In my experience, it can take around 1-3 days for the nem to kill the coral, but I definitely would not wait that long.

From my experience condy's are never happy and will move way more frequently than other anemones like bubble tips... I had both in my tank and the RBTA stayed put only really moved when they split the condy moved all the time with nothing changing causing it to move. I eventually took the condy out because i was in fear of it hurting my growing coral.
