REmoving an anemone from LR

[drperetz]

Hellow every1, I got these two beautiful neon buld with red tip anemones that I have to remove cause 1 of them is sold and another 1 is going to my 6 gallon nano...
CAn some 1 sugest their detachment cause i tried already and failed.

Aim a power head at the base....
I've also had luck lifting the rock the anemone was on, turning it upside down so the anemone is hanging, then lifting it just enough out of the water to expose the anemones' base.
Within a few minutes it let go and dropped right off!

some people have had luck with using an ice cube at the foot of the anemone

The aimed power head worked for me.

Aimed powerhead has worked for me too. Also required.......patience.

you can also try a chopstick. If you can get under the foot, you can kind of 'tickle' the foot and it will come off.

I've used ice successfully. And when I had no ice - frozen mozzarella. Don't ask. :groupflip
