If you have never kept an anemone before, the Rose Bubble Tip Anemone is your best choice. These beautiful anemones are much easier to keep than any other anemone we sell. Although all anemones can move around the aquarium, Rose Anemones seem to stay put much better than other anemones. They prefer to anchor their column, or foot, on the rock rather than the sand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBehavior:\u003c\/strong\u003e The Rose Anemone will host a wide variety of clownfish including Ocellaris, Percula, Maroon, and Gold Maroon Clownfish. Keeping the anemone with a clownfish will help it acclimate faster since the clownfish will feed it scraps of food.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTip:\u003c\/strong\u003e Do not try to move the anemone once anchored because its column, or foot, can be easily torn. Most anemones will die from a torn column. Be prepared to move corals out of its way if it should choose to anchor too close to them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGloves:\u003c\/strong\u003e We recommend wearing gloves when handling Anemones. When placing the anemone, try to support it from its slippery underside.

After it has attached you may increase the flow again. Try to minimize handling and support it by its slippery foot as much as possible. Leave 3\"-5\" between the anemone and nearby corals. Remember that it may or may not choose to stay where you place it. If it moves to a different spot be prepared to move corals out of its way. It will not sting and kill corals instantly but they should be moved away within 12-24 hours. If a Bubble Tip Anemone anchors where you don't want it to try adjusting the direction of flow in the aquarium to cause it to release and re-attach elsewhere.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeeding: \u003c\/strong\u003eFeed large pieces of silverside, squid, shrimp, and other meaty foods several times a week.
