Hey guys,what is the best way to remove a RBTA off of the rock?

I lifted the rock out of the water and held it upside down repeatedly. after a time the nem got so annoyed it began to move. eventually it dropped off. in another case it eventually wandered of onto the glass.

Unfortunately that is very difficult. This is what we did for three RBTA: we removed the rock it was attached to, and with a hammer and chisel we chipped off the rock as close to the anemone's foot as we could without hurting it. When then put the anemone loose where we wanted him in the tank and it didn't take him long to release the little bit of rock he still had and move onto the main rock structure.
