Sebae in the Rocks?

My Sebae has moved. We got him about 3 weeks ago and was bleached. He has made a turn around and has colored up to the proper dirt brown with purple tips. Two nights ago he decided to move about 10 inches from his spot in the sand bed to a spot wedged in between 3 rocks. His foot is about 4 inches from the sand bed but he looks happy and mouth is closed. I have 250w radiums that are 2 months old at the most. So should I be worried that he moved to the new spot in the rocks? tank is 24 inches deep.
 
Not to worry. I have had seveal sebaes for long periods. All of them lived their lives attached to rocks above the bottom of the tank. The books that say that H. crispa is a sand dwelling anemone are a little misleading. All of mine and most the ones I have seen pics of in nature, have been attached in rock crevices.
 
Thanks for the info, he ate well last night and seems to be happy. I hate that I had to move coral that were to close to him after his move. Hope he is happy there and does not decide to move again.
 
I would not be worried, If it picked that spot it likes something about being there and should be ok. My H. crispa lived on the rocks for a couple months. Then moved down to the bottom of the rocks and attach to the base of the rocks under the sand. It hasn't moved much from that spot for 10 or 11 month now.
