they walk around . and walk into powerheads and overflows and filter intakes and get spliced and take down your whole tank along with themselves. they also need strong lighting and regular feeding of market prawns. Needs good current too.Pretty potent sting that stings all your corals as it walks around the tank. very sticky. will stick to your hand and when u pull your hand away u take off a few tentacles along with it. will sting other anemones too

No... that's not the main danger.

Sharing from my experience... I got the most flourescent green carpet you have ever seen in your life from the last Aquarama exhibition. Beautiful. Deadly. Fullstop.

It ate at least 3 big tangs and a butterfly fish. It's an efficient fish killer. In the mornings, you see only the tail or head sticking out of the anemone.

Super sticky. Even human flesh get stuck easily. Even plastic tongs can get stuck fast and you have to really give it a hard tug to pull free.

Finally I had to kill it by digging my sandbed and using a scraper to dig its foot out coz it dug so deep and glued itself to the glass bottom. It ate up at least a hundred bucks of fish. :( It grew from a 3 inch specimen to 10 inch specimen within a few months.

It's a monster IMO. I've won't keep a carpet... too much trouble.
