Anyone have any tips on getting a long tentacle anemone to actually attach? I know they are sand dwellers so I dug a good sized hole all the way to the bottom glass and put him in there but of course my flow is making it difficult to actually keep it there and it doesn't seem to have any intentions of attaching!

Get a clear Tupperware container that will fit over the anemone, then use a hole punch to put holes in it all over the container. Place it over the nem, weight it down with something (I usually put a rock on the top) and that should allow it a little flow, but not enough to blow it around.

I finally dug a big enough hole and then lined the hole with pieces of live rock and that seems to have worked it hasn't been blown around for over the last few hours so I'll keep my fingers crossed!
