Rose bubble anenome

[Ocean2222]

Well aren't these fun!!!! Since I last posted from my mysterious missing clown fish. I've come a long way as I said I would. Loving my tank and learning everyday. I have two hammers a torch a Aussie elegance which is my favorite to name a few. So I got this beautiful rose bubble anenome and the darn thing is moving around like a free spirit as you all know. I've read in here about them but haven't really heard of a way to contain them. I personally love that she surprises me in the morning in a different place....but my only fear is her killing any of my corals. I got it for my clowns they could care less and I've done everything you guys have suggested. It is big so maybe the fish are scared of it. Anyways I don't really want to put it in a contained clear box. Is this the only option? You would think they would have invented something to hold them down by now...lol.

Once it finds a happy spot, it should stay put. Not a lot you can do until then.

Slowwwwww down. Your tank is not yet up to your speed. You are purchasing before researching. Nothing good happens fast in this hobby.

If it’s moving it’s because it’s not happy with something. Flow and lighting are the main culprits for BTA unhappiness generally.

Trust me. You you need to slow down and add some implus control. Ignore at your livestock's peril.

I research all the time only way to learn. My tank is beautiful. Everyone can't believe how well and healthy everything is. But as we know that can always change. I'm on top of it. The rose bubble i got two weeks ago I like a challenge. It's the second time it moved. I didn't want it where it went the first time so I moved it away and it just came back so I had to move all my corals away from it. Nothing is sealed down yet till I know everyone is happy. But with this guy I don't trust him. Lol.

They don’t take long to find a good spot, that’s if you have the proper set up. Seems like you know more than I do though

Yeah she's very happy where she settled in the first time. She's centre of attraction now and in the lime light...lol. She's getting really big since I got her. With her running around the tank you'd think she'd lose some weight!

Slow your roll. You're dealing with animals. It's not a popularity contest. You are not reinventing the wheel, or thinking out of box, pushing the envelope.

When moving around, its often due to too much water flow and/or light. Moderate light and flow are best and tank is barely mature for this anemone. Assure also that phosphates are not elevated

Well I'm scratching my head. I bought the anenome and my clowns are in love with my large Aussie elegance instead. Their going in and out loving it. Lol
