Geno,
I have not viewed the pics, but have heard of this happening with anemones.
One of the "challenges" of owning one I guess. I would try to move the
leather, or if you are up to it, remove the anemone completely. This
adventure of his may never end, and it may get to more than one coral before
it finds a final spot. Also, as far as I have heard, a walking anemone is a
bad sign. He should have found a spot when first put in the tank, and should
be staying there. Are you feeding the anemone? Have you seen any signs of
poor health from the anemone? Loss of color, size etc? Or, he may have just
adjusted to the tank and be looking for the right spot. If you move the
leather and he finds a spot under the pcs and stays there, maybe just leave
him. But if you move the leather and he just continues to move around, then
maybe consider removing him...
Just a thought or 10,
Shane

Hey Guys & Gals
within the past 72 hours, my pink-tipped , Atlantic anemone...has
started to move....was in the back of the tank barley visible from the
front...now seems dead course for my yellow puff leather as can be seen in
the following pics. My Question? do I just let nature take its course?...I
have never experienced a pink-tipped being that aggressive to eat a leather
as big as he is...or do I move one of the two?...the pink tipped will be
hardier to move as it was located on a single small piece of Fiji, now it is
just moving its foot along what ever path it chooses and we are talking some
massive pieces of live rock here...the leather is also on a fairly big
piece of Fiji...but I will gladly listen to all suggestion...even if they
may mean doing nothing...FWIW...nothing has changed in the tank...water
parameters all well within limits... if not better...the pink tipped did
move originally about a month ago when setting up the 55...he moved to a
less light portion of the tank...he is now headed for the PC section...so I
do not no what gives?
TIA
Geno
