Thought I lost my Sherman Bubble Tip anemone tonight. Found a spot where I thought it “melted,” nope that was something else, gone now though. Instead when I was doing some other work in the tank I found the anemone in my overflow. I have a an all in one and it was in the first chamber behind my fleece roller. Not sure how it got there considering I have a tight lid with no exposed space around the back chamber. I know it is small but did not figure it would get in the overflow. It is now back in main tank and seems happy. Anyone ever experienced this?

Yes anemones can fit through very small crevaces and holes.
You might be able to find a nem guard for your overflow grates if you experience that again.
