It’s just a bubble tip anemone. So in general, don’t feed it for the first week while it settles in. Turn off flow for 30 minutes or so, place it near a crevice, and let it attach. Turn the flow back on. It’ll move to where it’s happiest. Be prepared to move corals if it decides it’s happiest a place where it could sting corals. It’s easier to move corals than change flow or lighting to make the anemone happy.

Be careful not to damage its foot when removing it from the acclamation box. That can be a death sentence.

thinking of keeping it in a box what would you recommend and where can i get one

I like Reefing Art acclimation boxes. Amazon or Ebay.

Mine has been doing well at the top in one of those reefing art boxes. Been there for a while getting healthy and now can bring myself to move it! Def not ideal and did not want this to be a permanent thing but here I am.

 

[jose hernandez]

Do you put the top on ot or leave it open

 

[Cell]

No top.

Do you put the top on ot or leave it open

Lid on at first, once it settled down and stayed put I slowly started leaving the lid off while I was home. Now I don’t worry
