Does your Nem fix itself?

[potatocouch]

I had my BTA upside down (face down) to sand substrate with no rocks .. complete sand .. nothing to hang on to ...

The advice was to assist him (dip your hand and fix it manually .. foot on sand, mouth facing up) but I noticed my BTA can , well whatever she did .. she was able to be back to normal position .. foot on sand, mouth facing upwards.

Do you need to help your Nem up?

This should not happen/be very rare with a healthy nem. the amount of flow that would get it to completely detach would have to be exceptionally strong.

That said there’s no harm in helping it but it should be able to right itself up. What do you think is causing this and did it happen once or multiple times?

A healthy nem, IME no. They walk very well.

Definitely flow.

Does it look healthy, yes it does once attached. But this i can only see, foot is intact, everything sticky bubbly etc

 

[potatocouch]

That is when unattached then it fixes itself up then this happen

So does that look like a healthy bta?

Mind you when i open up 1 additional wavemaker, it walks but then drop like that... And attach again and look like that..


Interesting huh

Sometimes i wonder, okay people keep saying a flying anemone is unhappy anemone, but can it actually be a playful anemone? Can it be an anemone that cheeer yeeeehaaaaaaaaaa wohoooooo while floating but then come it goes to wavemaker its minced. But the point am trying to say, the behaviour of anemone who understands, who speaks their lingo.
