How to stop my animone moving...........

[mohd]

My tank has been divided to 2 part, Rock and sand...! (Half / Half ) that my carpet animone has never given any problem by moving or any, just only one ( I don't know how to call it in English name) which moving around and not welling to attach to the rock in the tank including tank's side.
It will roll as a ball after dark which normally I turn all light off, that it begin to do as such daily and flowing with water currency. when it goes to the area of sand that the beginning of problem that it could not get back to the rock area again...!
Ever morning I have to use PVC pipe to bring it back to the rock area.

Could anyone give me the answer what's going one wth it and what should I do to solve this problem?

Hello and :welcome:

Is this perhaps a Bubble tip anem? They tend to wander a bit until they find a place they like. Not much you can do to stop that except let them find a spot they like and like them there.

The will be loosen ablity then they come in the area of sand, even of water currency or itself. They can not attach on rock and tank side.

Can you describe your setup a bit more? Basic water parameters, lighting, what you're using for circulation, size and age of the tank, how long you've had the anemone(s), etc.

If the anemone continues to detach and move around the tank it sounds like it's not finding suitable conditions...

The morning I just ground my tank with broken hard coral and rocks over sand area. and now it has already stop moving even turning the light off. I just know that this kind of animone only attach on rock. No wonder! that why they start rolling at sand area. However, I have to keep an eyes for a few days.
