Tipped over anemones?

[tottenchris]

:help: Will an anemone set itself up if it is tipped over? I put 2 pink tip Haitian anemones and one is on its side and the other is upside down.
Thanks
Chris

Why not just turn them over? If you are worried about getting stung they make these cool new things that go on your hands called "gloves". :idea:

I was told I shouldn't move them for the first few days so they can get used to the tank, and I don't have any gloves. Would a net work if I do move them?

no it cant really right itself unless its very close to something. i would turn it over if i were u so its mucus doesn't clog it up.

I fixed them but is it ok for them to be on the sand? Do I need to move them to a rock?

 

[Germanman]

most are happier on rock cant really grab the sand.

Ok, wish me luck. I'm going to move them to a rock. They are so hard to move. They feel like snot.

They are now on rocks and look dead. I think they will inflate and get better. Thank you for your help.
