Sebae Anemone
Do sebae anemones tend to move a lot? What is everyone's experience with these?

They don't move a lot IME but they do demand very intense lighting. I have only been able to keep them alive with metal halides. Anything less and they crawl under a rock and die.

they will keep moving till they find a spot they like. in most cases it is because the lights are not strong enough.

I have one under cheapo PC's (130w) in a 20g and it has done nothing but grown out of control.  These guys can get HUGE!
He usually only moved once got happy and stayed. I also never feed him.
Hardly feed the tank either. Two fish and maybe 1/2 cube of food 2x's a week.
Also have Softies & LPS and a clam all doing great!

Skeety thanks for the info. I did do a lot of research before buying this and my tank has been set up for over 3 years maybe longer, I can't even remember. I am just concerned that it moved from its spot only to go back to the same spot.

Did you change flow in any way. That may have caused him to move.

I have rotating head on my powerheads. It seems that the one is stuck so maybe that is what caused it.
