Getting LTA to stay put?

[NH_Reefer]

I recently added a LTA to my tank. I’ve dug it holes in the sand near rockwork in several different spots, but it seems to uproot itself and then just tumble away into a corner from the flow. Everytime I’ve placed it I turn off all the flow in the tank to let it settle in, but it honestly seems like it just digs itself out of the sand.

any tips are appreciated!

LTA anemones need low flow and deep sand bed. Is your water up to snuff?if water is good, give t high light and low currents. Good luck

Does the PVC endcap trick work for LTAs like it does RFAs, assuming it can be pushed down into a deep sand bed?

I just excavate the sand all the way to the bottom. Put him in there and once he attached, refill the sand.

I used a larger piece of pvc not an end cap. That way the nem can attach to the glass and the pvc removed once it's settled in.
