Anyone ever have issues with ball anemones? I just noticed while looking around last night that there are probably 20+ of various size in my tank (some at least a quarter sized). Most close at night but some stay open. Happy to keep them for now unless they may become an issue. I'm planning for a CBB once I get my larger tank though, so may be a moot point.

I have found them to be generally harmless. And you are correct, if you get a CBB will be a moot point.
 
I had them in the past come in of zoa frags they irritated the crap out of them could not kill it or get rid of it always came back eventually fraged the frag to save some polyps
Yeah that’s what I was worried about. Didn’t know if they’d irritate anything. Guess I’ll get that copperband sooner rather than later
