FOR THOSE ASKING IF THE ROCK CAN COME OUT!
Yes the rock can come out but you cannot simply peel him off the rock!!!
His foot is rooted into the vast crevices of this little cave. I have peeled a nem off a rock before and I have attempted to peel this guy. It just doesn't work! So unless you have a special tool or a secret something else, don't bother asking if you think you can just show up, remove the rock, and peel him off.

I just spent the last 20 minutes trying to get him off myself, with no success, there are some tiny crevices in that rock cave. And I have girl hands and finger nails so im 1up on most of the guys here for this type of attempt.

So you if you think can do it, at least tell me how you intend to do it prior to me giving you the okay. Because I am not having somebody come in and destroy my rock or kill the thing. I can do that myself.[/quote]

since the rock can come out, lets make it simple, sell it with the rock. :)

rbta from rock
 
This is how I've loosen those dozen or so rbtas for the local frag trade shows. Materials required heavy duty garbage bag or any light -impermeable material, suitable container to place over target, 0.5 inch screws. Wrap material however many times around container leaving opening at top and decent excess material at base. Place cup over anemone and screw cup down onto rock. Just a matter of time b/4 anemone release from rock which has now become unfavourable anchorage point and move into container toward light source at top. No need to take rock out if you're willing to get hands wet.
