help with pink haitian anemone

[ju66alo6]

just bought a new anenome and when i brought it home and got it in my tank i put it in and it stood right up this morning it was laying on its side and has been sitting thr almost all day, i moved it down off the rock onto my sand cause thats were it was at the pet store when i bought it on the sand bottom........

Is thr something wrong, should i do something to try to get it to stand back up?

Any chance of pictures?

Well i stood it back up......

My clownfish wont stay out of it, maybe he is the one knocking it over?

That is an M. Doreensis, make sure it digs its foot into the sand. Put it in an area in the tank, where there isn't much water flow and it should be happy.

I guess there is a chance that the clown is knocking it over. Eventually it will dig in its foot and you shouldn't have to worry about it.

What sort of lighting is it under? Also, is it in the sand?

At the base of your rocks. try digging a little hole in the sand and put the foot in it.

Thread Revival: What ended up happening with this anemone? Every one that I've ever had just moves until it is happy. One actually detached from a rock near the top and fell to the sand, only to crawl all the way back up. Figures.
