Replacing an anemone.

[JohnniG]

The little white anemone next to the condy ( i believe it is? ) is touching one another and I want to replace the little white one. It needs a better spot with more lighting and a place where it isnt touched by the big one. How do I do this the easiest? Do i need glue?

anyone ?

Do you have a better pic? If it really is that white it's probably bleached and unhealthy as is. For sure watch it closely and monitor it's health.

The post was about HOW I moved it.

Really? Where are you from? The sentence structure would lead someone to think you were contemplating moving it. Please don't use glue, that would be like glueing a dog to the floor.

Denmark. It was typed pretty frantic and rapid I just wanted to move it to another place in the tank. But not sure how to. Have heard of the credit card method.

ok that makes sense... Id have 0% chance of getting my point across in another language, so you're way ahead of me

That said, I'm still not 100% clear, because the white spot doesn't look like a living anemone to me. I'm also, then, not able to identify it, or help with identifying a more appropriate location. That said, the credit card method doesn't work if the animal is on a rock. One of, by far, the worst things than can happen to an anemone is a torn foot. Using a credit card on a sharp rock surface greatly increases your chances of tearing it. There are several other ways to entice it to release. Flow, ice cubes (freeze to/di) and others.
