Moving Anemone

Hey, i have 14 bio cube with 2 clowns and some coral. i want to give my clowns a anemone but i don't know if it will sting my corals. is there any way of keeping it from moving all over the tank away from my coral.

Only way to assure that is to buy a fake anemone. Sometimes they will stay where you put them, but often they will move until they find just that right spot to settle down.

No there is no way to make it stay still.
IMO a 14 is way to small for an anemone. They require a very bright very mature and stable tank to stay alive long term. With that small of a tank keeping the paramaters stable enough for an anemone is going to be a real challenge.

So true... they do what they want, where they want, when they want.
