Antler anemone keeps crawling into holes?

[jasonak]

Hi
I got a antler or branching anemone( Lebrunia Danae) i had it right at the top of my tank im only running 260 watts PC at first it stayed right where i put it,now it keeps crawling down into cracks out of sight.I thought they were supose to like bright light? i put it on the bottom of my tank and it still was moving around,the current is there but not a whole lot.Anyone have experince with these? Cabt figure out why it dosent stay put.
thanks

typical anemone behavior. mine have always moved until they find thier spot. i have a GBTA that has moved from flow to flow as well as lighting for over a year now.
he began moving again about a month ago halfway across the tank in 3 days, then he started up the side of my LR, causing a move of poly's that havent been touched in 8 months or so.

Not only that, but I think these particular anemones are found in nature jammed between corals and rocks with just their "antlers" showing. It's why you don't see them collected very often.

Actually, I was thinking of something else when I responded. I've never seen one of those before. There's a reference to one on Wetwebmedia: http://www.wetwebmedia.com/marine/inverts/cnidaria/anthozoa/twaanemones.htm

Look around there, and you might be able to find something more on them.

It likes light but it feels safe if you put it on a rock with holes.

Hi
It has finally stopped moving for now it under a ledge at the bottom of the tank,I guess if it wants more light it will come out
