Do they ever settle down?? Ours is constantly moving around. Just when we think he's found his happy spot he moves again. Is there something wrong or are they just busy body nems? The condylactis, Delores, moves around but not near as much as Pete. She'll settle in a spot for a few days, contracting into the rocks for a spell sometimes, but mostly she's out and proud. :)
 
They'll keep moving until they've found a spot they like. Most likely nothings wrong unless you're changing the flow, but again they'd still try to move to somewhere they like.
 
Mines never moved since he found his spot, it's in a lower light area of the tank with low flow. His foot is deep down in a crevis of the live rock. At night he sometimes recedes into the rock with just a few tenticles slightly poking out.
 
Mine sat in the exact same spot for six months. One day, decided it want to go for a walkabout, and wandered the tank for three days. After trying out the rest of the tank, it moved back to within 1 inch of where it came from, and re-attached. Hasn't moved in 3 months now...

I just worry about the powerheads when it is wandering...
