I really wish that employees were just trained to say, "I don't know, I will try find out for you." This should be one of the things they are trained on first. Otherwise you get crap like this happening more and more often. There is nothing wrong with not having all the answers and putting in the effort to find out the correct answer.

LOL! I'm trying to UN-superglue my LTA! It will NOT move. It's in the exact same spot I put it - which is where i wanted it to be, but it's grown sooo big, I need to remove it and it won't move, no matter what.

A little hint to keep a Nem (at least an LTA, or Carpet, anyways) where you want it. Corral it in with rocks and it is less likely to roam around. Doesn't work for BTA's, mind you.

I use a powerhead and aim at the LTA and it moves

I don't want to hijack the thread, but, I hammered it with a powerhead for hours on 3 occasions, tried ice cubes, tried yanking at it, tried covering it with rocks, I even got frustrated and handled it a little too hard and poked my finger through the flesh on it's side (gross). It still won't budge. The thing is 14 inches across now and endangering a couple of expensive corals. I need to get it out! but I don't want to kill it, of course.

Its not gonna just get up and walk around leave the power head on it overnight, aim it at its base and you'll find its not were it was. You have to realize that its base could be 6inch inside your rock work. My 18inch anemone had a base that was at least 12 inch inside my rock work. It could completely disappear if it wanted too.
