How will i get it home

[Bmgrocks]

Found a great piece of live rock, with a very large anemone attached to it,

it is not one of those nusiance anemones eithor, it looks to be a long tentacled, or Condi, light pink and in good condition

How would i get it home, if live rock is wrapped in damp newspaper, would the Anemone survive the 30 minute car ride?

Don't anemone's have to be acclimated, How can i do that if its attached to a really big piece of live rock?

Should i just place it into the tank w/o Acclimation?

You are lucky it is already attached to liverock. your store will (it better!) put them both together in water.

they need a nice long acclimation. drip method is best

never place it right in the tank with no acclimation!!! do it as slow as possible.

If you have to acclimate the regular way,
hang the bag in your tank for 20 minutes or so (i like to use a potatochip clip to make sure the bag doesent float away)

then every 5 minutes take one shot glass of water out of the bag, and put a shot glass of water from your tank and put it in

this live rock is kinda big Though! im talkin like a foot and then some!

i'l prob try the drip the best i can tho....the store and i need to figure out how ima get it home, perhaps i bring a rubbermaid, a shallow rubbermaid, and fill it with the water from the store, and place the rock in that, get it home and DRIP it

That sounds like a decent plan with the rubbermaid container just make sure it doesn't slosh around in the container and you should be good. Take some pics while your at it too.
