I’m not sure if I can post this here or not but I recently ordered some rock nems from hellfire frags and I’m incredibly happy! I ordered a 10 pack and a few individuals they had for sale. 10/10! Highly recommend if anyone is looking for some nice rock nems. I saw on Facebook they are having some sales today, good hunting!

Do rock men’s move around tank and find their own spot? Or do you pick the spot and let them attach

They'll stay put if they like the spot you give them. It is common for them to move a few inches to a better spot, but they won't usually roam all over a tank like some other anemones will. They are happiest in the sand at the foot of a rock structure.

I’ve had a bubble tip that moved into a rock nems spot- the rock nem didn’t move and ended up losing half its flesh to the bubble tip stings. I had to move the bubble tip away, the rock nem never moved!

As anemone fanatic said they like finding a spot for their foot in rock. I’ve seen a few guys on here use PVC caps that simulate a crevasse that the rock nems like too

How do they reproduce? Splitting?

Hellfire is super for corals too. Regular very deep discounts when he wants to move things. Just be aware that shipping is slow but worth the wait.

That’s so sick what are survival percentage of babies?
I had three survive out of at least 100. Here are two of them now. I did not have great luck with them surviving. If I have another spawn I have a better plan to help make sure more survive.
