    After reading the recommedations on here for a easy to keep anenome, I boughta BTA. I was aware that it walked around, well mine is a beauty. It walked into my reef, stuck itself on the back glass, behind the living rock....and it likes it that much, it wont come out ! My pair of anenome crabs have adopted it, and they dont come out either, choosing instead to bury themselves into the anenome.

    Any suggestions on enticing him out without demolishing my tank and pulling him out please ?

    Well that's the thing with anemones, they choose where to go and where to stay. There isn't anything you can do really. If it's happy there then it will stay there..
    However, if you are determined to move it, you can use an icecube and rub it on it's foot so that it will detach itself and you can try again in another spot. Usually they like ledges, so try where there are ledges on your tank. ( It worked for me).
