Ok question….i finally got an anemone yesterday. (S)he decided UNDER a rock upside down was the best place to anchor.

Question is, do I need to worry about it? Do I need to try to move it? Will it move in its own if it’s not getting the food/light/flow it wants?

Any advice is helpful. Thank you all in advance.

It should move on its own I personally have had my nem move a couple time until it found its sweet spot I normally spot feed mine krill once a week as well

Mine actually moved under the rock as well. Check out my tank picture. Almost same kind of location.

Thank you both! I feed mine my sis shrimp every day (broadcast feeding) and once a week targeted. I only got it yesterday so that may change as I research and learn from you all. He looks like he's getting flow but there is no way he is getting enough light under there . I'm assuming the broadcast feeding, he isn't getting any of it as of now.

If you do that, you will have an invasion of anemones. They tend to split a lot if you feed them regularly

It will move itself wherever it likes. I wouldn't worry about it.
