i BELIEVE that there is a kind of anemone that lives in a tube like a worm and that it wont move.but its more like a worm than an anemone and its not very ornamental.

All the anemones can move if they want to, I've got BTA's that have not left their rock for over 4 years though. Its the risk you take having one that it can move.

If they are moving around, it is usually a sign that they are not happy with their location and are looking for stronger lighting.
How much lighting do you have? It least 4-5 watts per gallon is the rule for most anemones.
I have gotten lucky as my RBTA took up residence in the front,center of my tank and has not moved in over a year (except for trippling in size).

Hey Grog - how much lighting do you have and what kind is it?
