My green bubble tip anemone jumped off his perch. I've had him for months and he's never moved. He had his foot wedged in a rock crevice near the top of the tank. He's been on the same rock since I got him from a friend.
Last night when I went to turn the lights off he had jumped off onto a flat rock nearby. He looked like he might be trying to climb back on the original rock, so I was trying to lay the rock against him. The problem with that is the cinnamon clown he hosts. The little guy is so mad he won't let me put my hands anywhere near the 'nem. He bites the heck out of me if I get near it.
So now the 'nem is wedged down between two rocks near the top of the tank. He's fully open and his tentacles are waving all over and touching some palys.
What should I do to coax him back on the original rock? Why would he move like that?
