I've just bought a bubble anenome and it keeps blowing up its base and moving round the tank which for one thing is a bit of a pain but the main thing is that it's healthy is this normal and is there anything I can do to help it settle |

yes is perfectly healthy .. you mite want to turn off any powerheads or devices which make the water flow at a fast reate ,, mine did this for about the first 3-4 days intill it settled .. perfecty normal .. but make sure you if you have interanal or external filters , make sure the intakes are covered because the ameone could get sucked up n killed |

cheers Tommy it's been about ten days now but I'll try taking off the power heads to slow the water |
