Maroon beating up new BTA

My Maroon is twice as big as the new BTA that put in the tank today. It didn't even take him an hour before he found it and start rubbing it and what not. I was hoping he would give it a little time to adjust to the new tank and even let the BTA get a little bigger before he hosted it.

What can I do now?

This is he (and mine) 2nd BTA, the first one died. It just moved and was never seen again.

Maroons are well known for being extremely aggressive with their anemones. I'd cover it with a crate of some kind and take it back to where you got it.
 
Is it possible that the first one is still alive in there somewhere? I was under the impression that a dead anemone disintegrated and did very unpleasant things to your water quality and tank in general.
