maybe you've seen this before, but its new to me. i woke up this morning to find one of my condi anemones inside an empty medium shell. crazy little guy. kinda nice assuming it stays in the shell since now i can put it wherever i want. i suppose it also give the anemone awesome protection for its foot. might be hard to tell, but heres a pic of it on top of a rock.

Ive never seen this before but since they eat and excrete from the top, it shouldn't be a problem. Whoever what you said about moving it is a bad idea because it is there for a reason whether it be water flow or lighting ect. if you move it, it will most likely leave the shell

yeah, it was anchored in between 2 rock which i accidentally moved and knocked him loose where he fell to a bottom corner of the tank right next to the shell he is now in. i moved the shell back up to where he was before i knocked him loose. so im sure he'll be fine up there. its been up there since i put it in the tank.
