Hosting Clowns not Hosting after Move

2 Days ago we move everything out of the nano into the new tank.
The bubble tip anemone was not happy with where I placed him, so he is on the move... slowly... 2" per hour.. But the clowns have lost all interest in him.
We move every thing at the same time, Just feel bad that the clowns have had a dummy spit about being moved.
Do anemones eat shrimp? I ask as one of the peppermints was really close 1" away from it last night..

Pete I think it is just the shock of the move. When clownfish get moved they forget there surroundings and in due time they will "re-discover" the anemone and most likely host it again. I am sad to hear that they had a dummy spit over the move but they will be alright after a couple of days.

Keep Us Posted!

Any Pics/Vids?

This should answer your question about the anemone eating the shrimp.
