Meandering anemones....

[rct]

Ok, we purchased a bubble tip anemone for our maroon clown a few days ago, and he loves it, the problem is, we tried moving it around several times but the thing wants to be on the BACK of the live rock in the tank! In other words we now have an anemone that is very happy (fully extended and bubbled) and a very happy clown (diving around in the anemone) but we can't see either of them! Argh! Does anyone have any tips on "directed" movement of these anemones so they don't end up on the BACK of the live rock? We put him in the front, he moves to the back, repeat, repeat, reapeat. Thanks!

Its best just to leave it where ever it wants to be.i have one that loves to sit at the back of the tank..its a shame we cant see it well but at least its happy.

im afraid thats the way it goes

Well, it worked! We moved the live rock, adjusted the current to mimic the area he was in, moved him, and he's now in the front of the tank! Guess it just takes a little work to get it how they want it. Thanks for the replies.
