So I am having trouble with things in my tank "running away". They will be happy doing great then dissappear only to reappear elsewhere for a short time and vanish again. Some of the culprits are mushrooms, a rock flower anemone, and yellow feather duster. What can I do to make these wandering spirits settle back down.
 
I have both but my urchins are rock boring urchins so they don't like to decorate themselves like pincushion urchins do. I originally glued the mushrooms down. They were in place for about two weeks then just up and floated away. The one rock flower had been in a single spot for months and is now wondering. So I have 3 out of 5 nems happy and two on the move. With mushrooms everywhere.
 
Some mushrooms can act like a plague. They will eventually attach where they're happy. But this is also how they spread themselves around. The nems may be in too much flow. In this case they will let loose untill they settle in a less turbulant spot too.
