    Picked him/her up on sat couldnt help myself it was only $30 and was stuck to the glass on the side of the tank no tearing or gaping, so i thought it would be a good buy and maybe my nemo's would reside in ;). There was some brown stuff coming out dont know if its waste or what?

    I would move that wavemaker away from there
    if the nem decides to go travelling it might get stuck on that as it releases its foot hold

    Yes unplug it, or move it. BTA or any new anemone may wonder initially and from time to time. Your best option is to move the powerhead at this point and allow the anemone time to settle in. BTA typically foot between cracks in live rock. It will find it's way hopefully. Attempting to move the BTA is not a good idea at this point.

    Thanks! I'm very excited about them. Once they make it to our display tank I would LOVE to buy them a nem.
