    I have never had a problem with them moving much, so my input may be suspect.
    However, since I have never had a problem, it seems obvious to me that they are moving for a reason. Perhaps better water flow? Placement I think is key here. Each animal has preferences. Fulfill their needs and they will stay put. Do some research on the particular species you buy. Then, I would simply suggest removing the powerhead until they settle in a spot or better yet, covering it thus making it "anemone proof".

    Cruddy pics need a better camera at the office, looks a lot better in person, I keep from 3-5 rbta's in this tank at any given time, they actually pay for the tank's upkeep as they split :)
