It may be possible that it is moving to a more likeable spot. Or that it does not like the whites. What light fixture are you using and also what are your current parameters?

It moved around for 3 days, and then chose that spot... its the stock lights for the Fluval Flex 15g
And as far as the parameters i need to get a new test kit..... yea i know

That looks like a condylactis anenome. They are a pain. I have had them literally run away from the light and end up starving in a cave. What kind of clown do you have? Clownfish are picky too. Many won't host in a condy. I would move the rock it's on to the bottom of the tank and leave it be for a week to see what happens. So you feed the anenome? They can eat thawed silversides, or even rosey red minnows. Just tong feed it. If you can't get it to accept that, then get some Hikari Corallific Delight. My anenome LOVES IT! I mix it in a hell form and syringe it right on the mouth. It curls around it and swallows it down I'm about 5 min! Good luck!
