Hello forum experts.
A local reefer was selling a green bubble tip anenome for a good price and it was too good to pass so I decided to get it.
It came attached with a rock.
On the first day, it detached from the rock and it moved around a bit.
For the past couple of days, it has attached itself to the glass close to the return pipes.
I have a 6-ft (160G) tank and running 2 razor LED lights and tank has been running for 1.5 years. Water parameters are all good.
So far it has only explore the left side of the tank as far as I can tell.
I have tried ice and shooting a powerhead directly at it but still hasn't move.
Should I leave it there until it will find a spot that it likes?
What other methods can I do to get it to move? How strong of a current should I be shooting at him in order to get it to move?
I'm afraid that if I have too strong of a flow, it might damage it.
Thanks for all the feedback and info that you can give me.
