How should I acclimate them? Can I touch them or will they sting me? How do I put them in the tank? Thanks

Just curious but if your occupation is a "fish store" why aren't you talking to a wholesaler? I used to work at a pet shop with a fish room, and I would call our whole sale place and have them hand pick stuff for me. They were always very careful since they didn't want to lose the shop's business. Plus I paid less. Or are you in the consumption business and I'm in the assumption one?

This is how I acclimate anemones.
1. Float the bag for 15 minutes.
2. Open bag, remove 1 cup of water, replace with one cup of tank water.
3. Repeat step 2 every 20 minutes for about an hour.

You can touch them. Their sting isnt strong enough to hurt you. I just scoop them with my hand or in a small plastic container and sit them on a piece of LR.
