Why do anemonies like power heads so much? I have 2 anemonies and when I put them in my tank both headed for the power heads right off. 2 days ago I put my rbta in my larger tank and like it did in my nano it went right for the power head but this time it went right through it. It's gone now. But it got me thinking why do they like the power heads? Is it a sound it makes or some vibrations? Any guesses it insights?

May be they like the water movement and want to be closer to the out put side of the power head.

 Or may be they are like moths to a flame.

Good question.  One of my anemones is so stupid. "how stupid is he?" He's so stupid he can't pour water from a boot with instructions on the heal. 
Okay stupid I know, anyway my anemone loves to get caught in powerheads and torn up.  Then I spend 30 minutes pulling him out.  Then he sits on a lovely rock for 3 months.  Then he heads for the powerhead again.

I will just give my warning that your system will flood, bulbs will burn out, and things will take continuous maintenance... get over it.
