Hi.
My H. crispa looks great (inflated, eats well, got 2 clowns ++).
But: It stayed in one position for approx. 2 months (directly after purchase) but suddenly started to move around the tank (approx 500 litres).
-It seems to "seek" the upper part of the tank wall in the back, close to the water drain to the sump... -Not a desirable place to have an anemone...
-I have relocated it several times but regardless of where I put it, it always seeks back to the upper part of the tank wall in the back...

No changes have been made to lightning or current.
The only thing I can think of is that the temperature increased for a few days prior to the first movement, but this has ben down to normal for a month now. The Crispa, however, keeps moving...
 
Since Crispa's normally prefer sand, I'm going to guess your lighting may be low, and your nem is trying to reach for more light.
Specs?
And make sure all intakes are covered/blocked off.

Yep could be that or maybe it could be going there too because of the increased water flow around the drain.
