My anemone keeps moving and I'm thinking he's either just being an anemone or wanting more light. He is at the top of my tank right now and started from the bottom this morning. I have had him for multiple months. I had him in a nem box for about a month, because he walked off the rock and I wanted the clowns to pair with it. So it's back in the tank yesterday.

What is the tank size, type of light, and par (if you know it)
 
Are you sure it’s not flow? Looking for the right flow as well? Mine move when I mess with my flow with in the tank
 
Seems like enough light. I have had btas for 10+ years under cheap black box led's running at 65%. Some just moved away from a whole group for who knows why. I had two splits leave a group of several after being there a year or more and move 3 ' away to separate spots and plop down. They almost all moved a bit when placed in a new setup but only for a few days. Yours looks good.
 

HOW MUCH DOES A FISH’S FEEDING REQUIREMENTS AFFECT YOUR STOCKING DECISIONS?

  • Quite a bit, but an automatic feeder can change my answer

  • It depends on whether my nutrient export can handle it

  • It depends on how badly I want the fish

  • Not much. I’m willing to adjust my routine

  • Not at all. Feeding demands don’t limit my stocking choices

  • I usually learn about the demanding feeding schedule after buying the fish!

  • I haven’t really considered this before
