Where are the bubble tips?

[rdrink25]

I have this RBTA for about 3 weeks now and for the first week or 2 it was bubbled up but now it looks like this.

Sometimes they bubble, sometimes they don't. Nobody really knows why, but it doesn't seem to matter.

Nice specimen.

Even tho it was all bublles in the tank at the bottom. It looks like it is in a place that it is stretched to find light? Should I try and move it?

Don't mess with it - it looks fine. If it's not happy it will move on its own.

Thx I was more of leaning to point a powerhead the other way and try to move it that way.

Do you need it to move? If not - then let it be. Bubbled tips or not -it's fine.

If it ain't broke, don't fix it (not, "fix it til it is!")

Never had an anemone, but don't they extend their tentacles when they are hungry? Maybe feeding it more will make the tips bubble again. Again, not really sure, just something I think I might have heard.

What sort of lighting are you using?

My only thought, i found that water higher lighting caused my bubble tip to bubble more.

Same here. I have found my bubble to bubble more after I did a light change. (Went from the stock Deep blue lights to Giesemann Powerchrome lights)

btw.. it was like night and day going from deep blue to giesemann.

I recently replaced one of my bulbs in my aquaticlife to a Giesemann Powerchrome and agree with the difference between the bulbs.
