Hi all,

This BTA has decided to go walkies after sitting pretty for maybe 6 months.
It badly stung the branching Monti in the pic but moved again and the Monti started to colour up again so I was okay with it.

Today though, it has manoeuvred it's way back over again from the far side of the tank.

Am I better to remove the Monti?

Any suggestions on prying the Nem from the rock without damaging it?

Thanks in advance

I think you'll have more luck moving the monti, but knowing anemones there's no guarantee it doesn't end up right beside it again at some point.
Thanks
 
Monti but no guarantees that the nem will stay. Nems are great but they need a dedicated system imo from experience.
Thanks. I am definitely thinking of relocating it. I have another smaller tank that might become Nem specific.
