Beautiful! hope it stays where you want it, magnifica's can be a bear that way, they seem to love relocating themselves to the upper sides of the tank/glass IME, they seem to crave tons of light and flow.

I hope so the rock has pretty good wave action and it's a shallow tank so plenty of light

Hope it stays put for you. but as I am sure you know, that is a species that is a known "wanderer". Not an easy anemone, but its gorgeous though!
 
Beautiful Magnifica!! Mine are almost 13 years old. It has split into 3 surviving clones. They need to be acclimated to the bright light and will slowly climb to brighter light as they adjust to the light source. Mine are now near the surface in 800+ par, but let them seek the light, do not initially place it under such high intensity. Place it on the slope of a rock island directly under the light and it will likely walk to the top of the rock island with time. They will easily eat when healthy but don't require too much feeding.

I got this one from a friend so it's already in the aquarium for 9 months. The rock that hold it has about 400par
 
OK. Thats a good situation. That should be good light for now and it may just decide on its own to stay there or move a bit. I think it will do great!
 
That you got it already acclimated means it’ll probably be fine, just keep an eye out for any deflation.
