It hasn't moved since
Egg crate around the power head or RBTA?

Against the RBTA and not really touching it, more like a barrier, just to keep it on the rock until it grabbed hold

I have lost several anemones to power heads. The foam works well in preventing it if you're ok cleaning the foam every day. 48 hours in and you'd be surprised at how much flow those foam guards kill, so you really do need to give them a good rinse every day.
