Jeremy,

You may want to line the bottom of the tank with patio carpet.  This allows the anemones to attach to the carpet, but also allows you to easy remove the anemones for sale or propagation.

Welcome Jeremy.  What do you plan to do with them?

Here is what a customer said while on hold Oh my gosh! Did you open the door? I told you not to open the door. Dre is in here completely naked and he's got freak'n Macaroni and Cheese in his hands.

Very interesting idea. I guess I've never considered anemone propagation like this.

I picked up some LBTR from Mark Peterson on my way home from vacation in Montana.  I told Mark I was going to use the rock in a rose bubble tip anemone propagation system.  I sent him some pictures so he could check out what I have so far.  He asked me to share them here with you guys.  These were all in a 46 gallon bowfront tank with PC lights.  Hopefully they will grow faster now with a 400 watt metal halide:)  They are all clones of each other.  I have cut them and they split on their own.

They have all bubbled up like this in the new tank.
 
I had just gotten them all off the rocks from the old tank and let them loose in the 50 gallon rubbermaid stock tank.  I put some pvc scrap in the tank for them to attach to.  The long pvc piece has holes drilled in it for flow (like an underwater spray bar).
 
As I got them off the rocks I put them in the baskets until they were all removed from the rocks.
 
Close up of one of the baskets full of anemones.  There were about 20 in this basket.  Most of them are small.  They like to group together.
 
DIY stretch lumenarc type reflector for the tank.
