My LTA is attached to rock in a moderate/light flow area. He just went there and has been there for some time. I tried to corral him and it worked so keep trying.

Mine (Deb's) prefers to be backed into a corner, foot in the sand but up against a large rock or two also. I did prepare a shallow depression in the sand when it came to me, and that seemed to help.

It has moved since, in response to high current. It's now backed up against a rock wall, in moderate/low flow.

HTH, let us know how it does - if this goes on much longer, I may have to "sit" it for you...

My LTA is also rooted in the sand, up against a large rock. It put its foot down the night I brought it home, and has moved approximately 6" from that original location, most likely also due to current adjustments. The flow in its current location is just enough to cause the mass of tentacles to sway gently essentially in unison.
