About 2 months ago I purchased a really nice looking seabe anemone. he is a really light yellow with bright purple dots at the ends of his tentacles. Defiantly the nicest one I have seen. Hes about 7 to 8 inches and seems really plump. As far as I can tell hes really healthy.
In the past when I have had anemone's they would only last a few months and then die. I found out that they are very light hungry and need tons of light to survive. I now have about 4.5 watts per gallon on the tank I have 260watt in PC bulbs and 150 in MH. I placed this seabe on a really nice spot directly under the MH about 1/4 of the way down in the 90 gal tank. He stayed there for about a month and half so I thought he really liked his spot. but in the past two weeks he has moved into a large cave area I have in the tank and it seems as though there is only a little bit of light getting to him.
I figured that he started to move and fell into the cave area so I moved him back to his origial spot two days ago. In the matter of 6 hours he has moved back into the cave. I would just let him be in there but I am afraid that hes not getting enough light and will die.
What do you guys think? Is he going to be alright in there?
