Flow preventing sebae anemone from attaching? - Page 2

BlueWorldJeff · 12/05/2017, 09:26 AM

I won't be able to take a video until Thursday as I leave for work before the lights come on and don't get back until the actinics are on.

Since it moved, it detached from that rock and was just sitting on it's side in the sand. Not sure if flow is too low to get it to move again but I'm just going to leave it for now

Looks like it is probably a bleached Malu and not a crispa. Tough to tell for sure with the blurry pics. They will attach down to the bottom of your tank while crispas will attach up in the rocks. Looks pretty healthy aside from being so bleached. Good luck with it.

So right after I took the picture of it moving and attaching again, I came home from work and it was detached and just sitting on the sand. I left it alone and the next day it was upside down in the sand. I moved it to a rock/sand area and this is what it looks like now. Lights haven't fully come on, but doesn't look good.

Sorry for the blurry picture. Wanted to zoom in on open mouth

Is this the anemone moving? It hasn't settles down. In a couple weeks and has looked pretty bad a couple of times. Is there anything I can do or should I just let it float around and not try to reposition it?
