Wow.. obviously he really hated his original spot.. :lol:
 
Not only do they walk, but through a reproductive process known as "pedal laceration" will leave tiny pieces of themselves where they once were. These tiny pieces of themselves will turn into clones of the original Aiptasia. Kill it/them while you can!
 
This is in my 10g O. scyllarus tank (while she's little)

The aiptasia are doing nothing but adding color and a "flow" to the tank :)

I'm well aware of their reproductive issue. It'll gives me an excuse to buy nudibranch for taking care of it if I one day decide it got to leave.

I just found it odd how one of the hardiest anemones somehow actually decided to relocate.
