    Gsp

    I had them a while back and I placed them on the top touching the back glass and they spread up the glass. They got about the size of a dinner plate when my ballast burned up and the lights were out for about 4 days. They all died. Now I have new ones and am trying the same thing.

    If your anemone moves then you usually have something making it unhappy and it's looking for the happy place. If it dies then you may not have a happy place in your tank.
