Put two rose bubble tip anemones in my tank about a week ago. They like playing hide and seek and finally I found one under the shade of my toadstool. Is it 'ok' there, or should I move the toadstool to give the anemone some light?

The light is from my phone flash otherwise it's almost completely dark.

Anemones, especially BTA's will move where they want and are most comfortable. Let them be and eventually once they acclimate to the tank will be more out in the open. Or hopefully they will.

That very same anemone is now attached the base of my 9 inch at the top wide toadstool. Its has been there for 2 days now. The other larger one is now a very courteous neighbor to one of my frogspawn colonies. I found another RBTA in my brother's tank and it is doing great and getting along with the other corals as well.

Should I try to detatch the anemone? In this senoario I prefer the toadstool over the bubble tip.
