Hi -
Just introduced a rose bubble tip to my tank but he moved himself into a spot where you can't see him... Can you move them?

Moving them is very risky (you risk tearing their pedal foot), unless you move the actual rock it's on. But chances are, it'll just move back to where it was.

A trick that I use is once the anemone is in a place where I like it, I start to direct feed it with a syringe. The anemone is more likely to stay in a spot if it is getting lots of food. Don't direct feed it until it is in a spot where you want it to stay.
