RBTA question

I've had my RBTA for over a week now and it has decided to set up shop in the top of my tank right at the water line. It's opening great and looks very healthy. It was fed every other day and eats a lot. My question is, since it's newer to the tank, should I wait to aim a powerhead at it to encourage it to move? I really would like it somewhere on the rockwork (I know they are a pita to get happy in a decent spot). What do you think?
 
If it is on the glass, it will almost certainly move on its own. If you give them a piece of live rock where they can plant their foot under an overhang or in a cave, then they tend to be stationary.
 
Well it moved the second day in the tank from the upper rock work to the glass. I think it moved because it was to high up on the rockwork and now he's kind of shaded in the upper corner. Do you think he'll just move on his own?
 
Ya I think he'll move when he wants but will say this when an anemone is were you can see it and looks good PLEASE DONT MOVE IT.I say this because I have moved anemones that I could see and wanted in a dif spot and when they moved they either got damaged and/or sucked up in a power head so what Im saying is when you are able to see the anemone dont move it UNLESS nececary.Which most of the time its not!
