Can you create an overhang that can retreat under in case it is a light shock thing? I completely forgot about that aspect, it's quite possible it's wondering how the heck it went from 20' of depth to 3' depth or something like that.
 Maybe what you could do is, make some sort of eggcrate contraption box that you can place over the stream, that way the stream can stay on but nothing can get sucked into it? If it's attached though I don't think it will come undone (so long as the foot isn't injured). I've had two "powerhead incidents" with BTAs over the years. In both cases the foot never detached from the rock, they just literally expanded into it (crazy anemones growing from 4" to 8" in short order, making a powerhead 6" away only 2" away). In one case the anemone had enough strength to pull away on its own, and pulled back hard enough to actually pull the strainer off the powerhead (while the powerhead was still running -- of course this happened when I was not at home...). Both BTA's are still with me, and doing OK (although you can still make out scar tissue). I did briefly toy with a stream in my 75g this last summer and I don't recall the anemones ever getting pulled up too badly by the stream. Nevertheless it is something I'd watch for a bit. I suppose you could also just dial down your stream for the night maybe? Good luck finding him! PS. Sam: Point well taken (about the semantics). Your clarification makes perfect sense to me.

Don't forget that they can crawl up to overflows too
