So this anemone started traveling.. it detached from across the tank and I found in on the bottom live rock piece and it has traveled up to this spot. As you can see it's close to some spa and others... should I try detaching it or move any of the coral or do you think it'll be fine?

Let the anemone chose where it wants to be, then move the corals away from it. If it moves again then the corals will have been moved for nothing. Nice anemone though.
 
How quickly would it kill them? Over time or could it kill everything in its path it touches?

Im not too sure how much damage the anemone can do, but it certainly will sting corals
 
To avoid this problem, I gave my anemone its own island.
They grow fast and can take up a lot of real estate if left uncheck.
Small changes can cause them to wander again too.
 
I have acro colonies within 2-3 inchs of my BTAs and the BTA will sting them and turn them white.
