I have a rock flower anemone which was happy on a rock where I originally placed him for a couple of months, then one morning I found it curled up in a ball in a back corner of my tank. I picked it up and placed it on a rock slightly lower down in the tank where it latched on for a couple of days, but then crept into a hole in the rockwork. Then this morning I noticed it had moved from that hole and was lying curled up in a swim through inside my rockwork where it was difficult to see. I tried to pick it up again, but instead fumbled it a bit because of the awkward angle, and suffice to say it's now tucked deep inside a crevice in the rockwork which must be almost pitch black and where I can't see it at all with no hope of manual removal unless I disassemble my aquascape.
It's a pretty frustrating outcome as the rock flower anemone was £100 - the most expensive animal in my tank and one of my favourites. Am I likely to see it again? Any ideas why it might have moved in the first place? I was feeding it chunks of meat once a week or so, and it seemed happy until it moved for no apparent reason.
