Bubble Tip Anemone Questions

[tdowning]

Good morning R2R. So I introduced a bubble tip to my tank yesterday, did a slow acclimation and got it situated in the tank. I knew that wherever I put him wasn't going to be his end/desired location and I'm ok w/ that. It seems however he's decided that he is a bat and wants to hang upside down on the back of a rock away from the light and flow....

...so my question is, is this "normal" for an anemone that is introduced to a tank, is he trying to tell me something, should I try to move him again (which I'm guessing no) OR am I just being paranoid and everything is ok.

I've added a picture to show you, thanks for any help/guidance!

Yep, completely normal. They will do all kinds of weird things. :-)

Yes he needs too get used too your lights /flow of your tank .. when he's settled a little better , he will find his place ... patience is the answer ... he's probably a bit shy still :cool:

I like in the picture the clown fish is just hanging out...like, hey...can we play yet!!! And the anemone is like...I haven't had my coffee! lol

Thanks...I was kinda thinking that, but still as a rookie in the hobby, I wanted to make sure!
