My bubble tip anemone split yesterday morning and was purchased in the evening. It hasn't moved from its this spot in the tank since being placed in. Is this normal post-split behavior, or could there be an issue?

Bubble tips are known to split when stressed. Yours would have been stressed from transport and being in a bag.Let it heal, it might hide for a bit too until healed. My Forrest Fire did it when i got it and whenever it splits it moves into the rockwork but comes back out a few days later.

Mine did the same thing, though they never came out where I wanted them to... i had to move a rock to enjoy them more. they seem to be quite happy now.
