jiwenen Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 Need some help here. My bubble tip is 3 day old in my tank. It seems to always spread itself out. And it appears to be huge. Is it normal? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zoid Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 If possible try to increase the lighting, and try to feed it. It should be back to health in no time with proper care... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hydrox78 Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 when they expand mean they are reaching for light and food. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slayer213 Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 Do not plug out a anemone... you might damage its footing and kill it.... just leave it alone and it will find himself a comfortable spot to stay for good.... i have a bleached bta for 8mnths till now, it was white when i bought it, and most ppl tell me that it wont survive for more than a week..... now its doubled in size and eating all the time though its still white. in my experience, they are definitely hungry when they extend they tents like this... mine does it all the time... after feeding it a piece of small chopped market prawn, its will go back to its bubbly self.

Slayer213 Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 BTW... if u really have to move an anemone, try blowing it with a wavemaker, eventually it will dislodge itself.... hope this helps Quote Buy fish that excite YOU, and respect others' passions.
