Ideas for getting an anemone out of the corner?

[Caine]

I've got a little Haitian anemone in my tank that seems to love the corner, but of course I'd like it to come out to look pretty. Do you guys have any ideas for getting it to come out and maybe find another spot?

Thanks for reading. Any thoughts and ideas are much appreciated!

Temporarily aim a powerhead right at it.

Direct powerhead right at it, or at least alter flow significantly, It will get annoyed and move,

I would just carefully scrape it off the glass with a credit card or old hotel key card, etc. If you are careful you should be able to do it without damaging the foot.

I tried the scrapping previously and it wasn't hard to get him out, the problem is the little punk seems to like the bad anemone corner . I'm blasting the little guy with the return stream now. We'll see if he gets the message.

where are you trying to get it to move to? Looks like you only have that one small rock structure in the middle that has another coral on it. Do you want it to move there and then it will sting the other coral? My bubble tips generally like to have there foot in a hole or on an edge where the foot isn't exposed. If you can create a spot it will like you will have more success in getting it to stay.

That's a good point patman. I kept reading that they would dig into the sand. I had a rock in the open empty spot but he walked himself over to the corner. I'll try making a rocky area with more space for him to stick his foot.

So he was fine with being blasted with the return flow. I also tried to burry a rock that he was standing on and covered up his foot with sand. That didn't work either and by that time I was ready to give up for the evening so I made a rubble pile in the corner so that he isn't so hard to get out if the corner again. The way he is in there now it seems like a mini rock wall might be the thing for him.
