So I have this bubble anenome, ive had it in the tank for about 3 weeks....clownfish also added at same time and hosting. it looked great from the getgo but now is behaving strangely. its almost looks to me as if it is TRYING to split. it almost looks like a figure 8 but then again kindof not. its so hard to describe. its inflating and deflating often ... more than normal according to threads online. this started happenening about 24 hours ago....about an hour before my lifght were to go out. i got nervous that this would hurt the anem if the light went out during this process so i kept them on throughout the night. i cant imagine that its not the location thats causing this because im assuming it would just move, it also seems as tho the clowns are a bit more protective of it, but they are very careful about touching it and wont go in it anymore. this has been going on all day and still not split. it does look like more of a figure 8. i did allow the lights to out tonight thinking that maybe i should have just dont that in the first place for photosynthisis....any comments? It is directly on top of a hole. which i put another rock in down so it wouldnt be too deep. 75g tank, 2 months old, test the tank almost every day (im OCD about my tank) . 78.5 degrees, pretty high flow for a 75g, amonia did test at 1-2 today so i added 3 caps of prime right away. all other test were normal. i just went and looked with lights out and anem is open with a bit less movement then during the day but the clows are sleeping in it . im guessing that it would have split by now if it was going to. also any advice on placing st thomas mushrooms and bounce?
