Nocturnal Anemone?

[Maxx Yung]

I have an anemone in my 10 gallon, Green BTA. I have Ai Primes. So during the day, it hides under the rocks and looks like it's not exposed to my lights at all. During the night, however, when the lights are off, he comes and fully opens. Maybe my lights are too strong, any help?

How long have you had the anemone?

Depending on the lighting it came from, it will likely take a few days to week(s) for it to fully acclimate. Let it roam and find a happy spot.

2 weeks

Can you lower your settings and slowly bring them back up?

2 weeks seems like a long time to acclimate but without knowing what lighting it came from, it could take that long. I’ve had nems camp out inside a rock crevice for weeks and then thrive and others hide and never come out

They came from Radions XR15s. Nem at shop was literally all the way up basically as high as it could go. My Ai Primes got a reduction in intensity too. Today it moved from the back of the tank into the middle of tank and blocking the cave my firefish lives in. Luckily he was out of it.
