Happy Monday everyone!

I picked up a tiny Rose Bubble nem yesterday. Brought him home and acclimated him and when I put him in the tank he grabbed onto the rock right away. I assumed he would proceed to crawl all over until he found a spot he liked. 15 mins later he's flying all over like a tumbleweed blowing all around in the current.

He finally found a spot last night in between a couple of rocks and I felt good about going to bed. This morning he was at it again blowing all around. My main concern is that he might get sucked into my mp40's.

Finally I put him in a glass with a large mouth so he will be protected from the water movent until he settles down but he can get out easily and leaned it up against the rockwork so he can climb right onto it.

Thoughts? Am I overthinking this? I have never had an anemone not grab on right away.

My anemone ( though not a BT) is 6 weeks in tank and still takes a tumble every once in awhile. I was quite worried at first but now have come to expect it until he finds a place perfect for him. Currently upside down under rock ledge......
