How to take the flower anemone out

[binylee]

Hi everyone,
I have a flower anemone in my tank. I was trying to get it out last night. But it stuck to a rock. Is anyone have better technique rather than peeling it off?

Thanks

Remove the rock?

Hi.. hi.. that's funny... it's out the story if I can remove the rock
I heard that anemone is easier to move if you put it in colder water. Maybe, I'll try to peel it off again tonight.

most flowers have a large foot that embedds down into the rock. I usually get mine to move by using a PH aimed at it and place something that I would be willing to part with beside it and in a few hours it moves to the new thing and you can remove it.
trying to pry it off LR is pretty much usless you will damage the anemone before you will get it off the rocks ( more than likely).

WaterPik, ice, or the last resort, chip off the surrounding rocks.

I've removed all kinds of anemone, but for the rock anemone, the only thing worked for me is breaking the rock off.
