Im getting a baby Rose Anemone(1"), and iv been reading about them wandering into the powerheads. What can i use to cover the heads and still allow for good flow?

Agreed, but I have just kept an eye on them and when they get anywhere near it I move the power head. They generally don't wander too much after they get settled.
 
Thanks guys. I was gonna go look for some type of netting or mesh material from home depot, but bridal veil material would be perfect.
ill have to check Michel's(craft store) and see if they have it there.
 
I had one who was in the same spot forever
just up and wander through a pump before

and he was huge :(
 
Some powerheads come with a basket to protect them.
Ive tried the bridal veil and it works but gets clogged easily.
