My sherman decided to relo next to some glued acro and spongodes frags. Its foot is burried deep in a crevice now and I won't be able to get to it. I need to move the frags asap, correct?

That’s the thing if you move the corals the nem may relo again... and again and yet a fourth time.
 
Or point a powerhead at it (don’t blow it to pieces ) but encourage it to move.

Might be easier to move the smaller frags though if the Nem has claimed the spot.
 
The curse of the bubble tip! The exact reason I won't ever release one in my tank. Point a powerhead directly at it or turn them off completely to get it to move around. Once his foot is detached, you can tank him out and sell it [emoji12]

Noooo! Heck, I looked for 6 mos for a Sherman. Now if the darn clowns would decide it's interesting. . .

I may very well feel like you eventually, Gig, but I'm not ready to give up yet. When I do I'll find a ginormous magnifica to stick to the front of my glass and block the view. ;)

I think if we counting Gig'em, your Mag has moved more than my BTA in the last year. Bwahahahah! Close buddy burnnnnnn! [emoji14]
 
My BTA moved and was touching my spongeodes for a good month before it decided to move away. It did absolutely no damage, but maybe I just got lucky.

*only moves caused by my own actions which resulted in no flow or a change in flow prompting anemone to move towards better flow.

The one time your BTA moves it'll probably kill 4 colonies or float straight into the power head [emoji13]

I hope it does! I want 10 Sunbursts! [emoji14]
