Should i be concerened

[Cmajor]

My Black Widow Nem has placed his foot inbetween the overflow and the backglass. Only way for me to get to him would be to disassemble the overflow. To me he looks stuffed in there but maybe he is happy. Should i be concerned or should i get him out of there

How do you feel about disassembling the overflow? I generally leave my anemones where they want to be (unless they're moving towards a powerhead).

I wouldn't outright try and force him out, but I would make sure your overflow has some sort of foam or sponge to protect him from getting sucked in. He's up there for a reason? Light? Flow? Don't know. Monitor him with precautions and if you want him to move hit him with a small powerhead for awhile.

I could take it apart but dont really want to mess with it. Maybe leave him there as long as he seems fine i guess?

He'll probably move again. Just make sure he can't get sucked up into the overflow or powerheads and let him go. Sounds like he's trying to find a spot. I've found with nems they either are wanderlusts and move all the time or they park it and never move. How long have you had him? Is he established?
