Hey guys,

I got a rainbow BTA about a week ago. He found a great spot and looked super happy there, good light and flow. Well i come home from work and he went through my overflow weirs into my sump ( I have a AIO tank). I'm really hoping that he moves back to the main tank but i doubt he will (has to come out of the water to go back through weirs).

The anemone is still very healthy, full color and good looking mouth.

What is the best way to move him back into the display?

Thanks,
 
What is the best day to move him back into the display?

Sunday.

I think you meant "way". If he's in the rear chambers on the glass it should be pretty easy to use your fingers to gently loosen him up and then just move him back into the display.
 
Nem on glass, I scrape off with credit card. Nem on rock, either hang upside down over water for a guaranteed but stressful removal or aim a powerhead at it and hope it is uncomfortable enough to move on it's own eventually.
 
Just rip it off like a band-aid. Kidding, you can use something cold to make it release.
