I can not seem to keep my anemone in one place I put it on a rock but will not stay I have placed it on side of rock it will still not stay finaliy it died what can I do about It have lost 6 anemone over time. Need HELP.
 
You will not have much luck putting a nem where you want it and expect it to stay.. They are notorious for moving where they want to be. Can you give us a run down on your tank, size, age, parameters, lights? Maybe some pics? If you have been through 6 nems you definitely have a problem somewhere.
 
Agreed with all above. I have had success with nems by turning the flow down at first, letting it attach, and once its attached, let the tank run. Nems are unstoppable forces, they go where they want. They seek prefect light and flow, and wont stop until they find it. Like stated above, tank pics and info will help.
 
They also like more of a hole or crevice to put their foot in. Just sitting them on a rock is not necessarily going to work. And you also just have to be willing to let them do what they want. They are an animal, not a plant. You also need pretty stable water conditions, and to be the type of person to leave your light setting alone, set your pumps and leave them. Any slight change may cause them to move.
