Anemone Removal

[hutch1187]

Is there any good ways to remove an anemone from a rock? I need to take some out so I can sell them as they are getting out of control but need to know a save way to take them off the rock. Thanks.

Try directing a powerhead at them and then give them a While. They will often try to move and when they are moving they can easily be gotten.

This is sort of out of the topic but I was observing one of the anemone hermit crab trying to remove one anemone from a piece of rock to put onto its back. It spend hours pinching and pulling, so maybe that's what you need to do? Actually, if I am less patient I'd get a hammer and chip off the edge of the rock the anemone is standing on.
