Anemone moved and wont come out

[kevinreefer]

I bought a bubble tip anemone and it migrated to the back of the rock and it wont come out. I'm not sure why. Any ideas on how I can get it to move? My parameters are good and might lighting is fine, I think. I'm using the Fluval Reed light.

Give it time.

they move b/c they didn't like where they are - either flow or light is off where you originally put it and it's stressed out.

if you have no other corals that'll be sensitive to changing flow/light, then you can play around with that and see if it comes out.

don't try to manually move it - it'll stress it out even more and cause it to further retract into the back.

try cutting back on the lighting and see if it comes out. if your lights are too bright and you have a shallow tank then its going to stay in a cave.

I've tried this but ,my corals get ticked off. I need to work on finding a happy medium.
