Bubble tip anemone

Posted: February 5th, 2012, 9:32am CST by HeikoS

Hi guys,

I bought a small Bubble tip anemone yesterday, attached it to a rock where i wanted it to be. obviously it didn't like that spot and started moving. last night befre i went to sleep, it moved into a small ''cave'' underneath some rock.
This morning it is hidden away completely, I don't see it. I checked all filters, no where to be seen. i suspect it moved in even further underneath those rocks. Should i go and do an intense search for it or just leave it and wait till it comes out from itself again?
