[Oceanwave45]

Hey everyone - just got home and found two anemone I had one...
Now I have two...

what the heck??? What do I do? Should move the bigger one that's under the rock? I'm. It sure as what to do here... why did this happen

Please be detailed in your response

Just leave it. Moving it will just stress it out. If it is unhappy with its location it will move by itself.
And for why it split could have been a bunch of reasons.

So what do I do with it... I only have a 38 gallon tank - can I have two?

I have had BTAs split it can be a sign of stress or health. I currently have 3 in a 45 gallon but had 5 at one point with no issues. Just wait a few weeks for the two to heal and trade one off if you only want 1. I dont feed till the mouths are completely healed and have always had luck with them surviving. One will usually move around till it finds a spot its happy with.

Im sure they will be fine. I have just never feed them because the split through the center of the mouth so i didnt think they could even eat.
