Problem is that it will sting anything it comes into contact with.They move around too much unless they like a spot alot and stay there.Risky IMO.

Nothing is a guarantee ... Anemones have a mind of their own ... I just put half of mine up for sale because it decided to move.

You can try a few things.

First off, If you have a rock with a decent size hole/crevice use that for where the Anemone will mount it's foot. Do this in a quarantine tank or bucket of water. From there place this in your tank in a that isolates the rock, it's a good idea to place the crevice or where the anemone's foot has mounted on the southern end of the rock and place another rock in front of this rock with some space between the two so the anemone can perch it's self onto this rock as a shelf for it to open on.

This is how my GBTA mounted its self and it has never moved in the year I've had it. I even placed a Vortech MP40 next to it and it's still there and has no desire to move...

My GSMs love theire home and even the juvenile GSM can stay in the Anemone with the powerful surge coming through with the vortech...

Good luck, just make sure it plants its self on the rock, a big hole will guarantee that.
