Question GBTA question???

I have a nice green bubble tip anenome that has decided to take a long walk about. It was settled in what I thought was a happy place but two days ago it decided to go on a tour. Now it is on the opposite side of the tank....... on the side glass, a little higher then half way up.

My question is, is this a normal thing? Will it return down to the rock's? Or should I try and move it?

He tryed to get into the overflow but was half stuck to my glass cleaner so I was able to move it. then he moved off the glass cleaner and now sits about 8" from one of my power heads.

Nems is evil......they will do what they feel is necessary....they place security above all else, it seems sometimes...try and find a rock with a smallish hole or crevase....they like to wedge themselves in a small opening then expand around the opening to really "lock" themselves in place..

That is where he moved from, the rock had a hole in it that he was anchored into. Would he have moved if my false perc were bugging it to much?

Hey Doug, how are you doing BTW.

I have no idea I made sure not to change anything since it set up camp in the hole in the rock. So your guess is a good as mine.
