Fragged Anemone

A couple days ago I got a fragged anemone. I have a piece of rock in the tank that has a small enough opening that I stuck it in. After doing more reading, I am wondering if I should have just placed it in the sand to let him find his own spot, or will he be ok in the rock?

You can frag an anemone?
I'm assuming s/he means to say s/he picked up an anemone that had recently split...
As for your question, you can place it wherever you think it will benefit from the most. If it is not happy with where you have chosen to place it, it will adjust and find a comfortable place on its own.

Thanks GR. Can I move it to a different location? Its only been in the tank for three days. I don't think its doing good where its at.
Oh and I meant a fragged coral.

What kind of coral, do you have a picture?

Thats crazy.
One time I thought my anemone was having babies, but it was really dying.
Theyre so confusing.
