What kind of nem is pictured below? I’ve had it for about three weeks and it still has not found a place to settle. Mainly hangs out in the sand. I saw some forums suggest that if you get a PVC and put it in the sand it may take to that but I wanted to wait a few more weeks to see if it finds a place to settle

Sorry. You got to give us GOOD PICTURES of the anemones. Not blue pictures and just a distance picture of a few tentacles like this to ID the anemone.
 
It looks like a Long Tentacle to me, especially with its sand dwelling habits. They like a sandbed of at least 3-4 inches so they can bury their entire foot, and will wander around aimlessly if they can't find a suitable area. A solution that may work is to get a 5" length of 4-5" PVC and fill it with sand, then place the anemone in that. It doesn't work 100% of the time but would be a good thing to try.

Appears to be long tentacle . Keep in mind, pic best under white lighting for clear I.d.
