Is there any way to help the anemone find a spot without it dislodging from the rocks and floating into my powerhead? Over the past few days, my new rbta moved aprox. 36" before completely letting go of the rocks and floating around. Luckily I was there and turned off the powerhead it was floating towards and turned it back on after the anemone started attaching to another rock. This morning I found the anemone on the side of my koralia powerhead. I had to go to work so I turned off the powerhead and from the reports from my wife it slowly moved its way to the back of it. Is this just gonna be a waiting game? All of my corals are on the sand because of a rescaping and I don't want to put them back on if the anemone is going to be moving around like that. There are no fish in the tank which has run fallow for just over 5 weeks now. All parameters are normal other than my nitrates being a little higher than usual at 15ppm. Lighting is a T5 Nova Extreme fixture.
Pictures are after it moved to the back of the powerhead.
