I placed my bubble tip anemone in my tank where I would have like for him to attach, but of course it had other ideas. He moved to a spot I could live with, but overnight he moved behind my rocks. Can I try and move him back to the front? Also, I'm afraid I won't be able to feed him this way. Thoughts?

1. You don't need to target feed anemones.

2. Trying to move it will cause it stress, and it may end up going right back to the place you removed it from. Unless it's in immanent danger of being harmed, or of harming a coral, just leave it alone.

3. If you do decide to encourage it to move, try aiming a powerhead at it... It may decide to wander to a new spot.
