thanks for all d info...i got an anemone from iwarna which is huge. its like the size of two palms when it opens. look like my orange clownfish seems straight away to host it but they became aggresive esp to a single black clownfish untill it start to hide behind some rocks. and d anemone like to stick to the side of my tank even after i place it on the sandbed twice. any idea how to make it stay on d sandbed and i like to frag it to make it smaller. juz way too huge for my 3ft tank
