Found in the Aquaclear on my 20L

Anemones will move around for a number of reasons, it may not be that it is seeking a different temp. It could be trying to get to a higher or lower flow area, could be seeking more or less light, or it could be that some are trying to get away from others. Anemones can be very aggressive towards each other if they feel at all crowded. They do not all get along, even the same species. How many anemones are in that 20L tank? More than 1 or 2 could be the overall issue, even if it's a result of them splitting. It may be time to move some of them to another tank.
 
Wow, at first I thought it was a turbo snail who ditched his shell. Very cool.
 
Tour of the anemone

The anemone in the JBJ 28 Nanocube has gone for a tour:

Wow, the same nem that seemed so content up front just tried to commit suicide through the overflow. :der:
 
I have always heard/read that when a bubble tip starts moving around it is unhappy and is looking for a better position, be that more/less light, more/less flow or even just the move to a nearby 150G that belongs to your dear friend, Trish :) Of course in my tank it would risk being poked with the handle of a toothbrush until it commits suicide by powerhead.
 
The anemone is back in the spot it started from (and had been for several months). I think it learned the algae isn't​ greener on the other side.
