tube anemone

[g2nogard]

Hi everyone.

I had a pink tube anemone ( the tube casing is soft)
And i had a hard tube coco worm and for some reason the coco worm disappeared.

Can anyone advise me, am i able to get my tube anemone to settle into the hard tube left by the coco worm? ( is it safe to settle inside)

Thank you

I would post this in the anemone and clown fish forum.

Not an expert by any means, but I think the anemone makes its own tube . . .

You'd more likely hurt it by trying to get it in there. Like Martimer said, they make their own. Just like you wouldn't appreciate having someone else's skin put on you

It's pretty common for filter feeders like cocos to starve for lack of tiny food in a young tank. I believe you can feed a tube nem, there might be videos on YouTube or other threads in the forum on it.
