He's been in there a few hrs don't want to keep touching him and stress him out.

You have no control over his spot or movement.
Provided he is not floating around the tank, never touch him.
I have not touched mine since putting in 5 years ago.
They don’t like change, they find spots they like.
Gotta be stuck though.

Just leave it alone. The more you touch it, the worse it is going to do and you will probably kill it. Make sure you have your powerheads covered with something.

It will move to a spot he likes, and then from there it will expand all over the place.
