I just got an anemone 3 days ago. It’s still not footed into anywhere. I’ve tried to move it a couple times into a rock, but each time it eventually moved away and face plants. It looks healthy as of now, and today both my clown fish were actually nesting in it. I’m not sure why it isn’t planting its foot anywhere. I turn the flow down, I changed the lighting. I’m not sure what else to do, and I don’t want it to die. Any suggestions ?

Do nothing at all. You can't really make it sit anywhere. They find the best spot for themselves based on flow, lighting and other things that could bother them.

Will it likely die if it hasn’t planted its foot by now? Or does it take time?
 

Freshwater filter only or is it? Have you ever used an HOB filter on a saltwater tank?
