hi this is my first time posting a thread , i got a problem with my anemone not wanting to leave the clam its attached to. I try shaking it off i try moving it also from diffrent places to see if it detach from it but it seems that no matter where i place it in my tank as long as it is with the clam it would stay there. How can I detach it from the clam without harming it ?

Why do you need to detach it. What type of anemone?

Gently slip your finger under it and slowly wedge the foot off the clam shell.

Yes I would definately try and remove your Hatian. Those anemones have one heck of a sting and could easily damage your clam if it is still on the clam shell.

take an icecube to the foot and use a power head. It will peel right off.
