Hi,
I have an Elegance coral pretty close to the anemone. Not sure which one will win when they touch.
I really don't want to move elegance. Would the rock anemone move on its own once it gets stung?

IME rock anemones don’t wander much or very fast …on the other hand, they don’t seem all that hard to pry up (assuming its not in a deep hole)…
Given how touchy elegances are (and thats a nice one), maybe try moving the anemone if you are worried about it…
I won’t dispute other experiences, thats just mine

I have 6 rfas, five are in there original spots I placed them. One, over night, moved under an overhang on the opposite side of the rock. I knew it wouldn’t be happy there because there was limited light. A week later I got up it moved back to the original spot. I don’t know how fast they move but mine moved a significant distance over 8 hours.
 

Freshwater filter only or is it? Have you ever used an HOB filter on a saltwater tank?
