I dont no much about this sort of stuff, but whats stopping you from putting your hand in the tank and taking it of him. |

turn the power head off as it will eventually kill the anemone, then c if u can get it off if not move the powerhead to the other end of the tank with the anemone attached and it will probably move off to find a better spot |

it's not attched to the power head? it pulled the little filter cover off of the bottom of it and then kindof jumped off the rock at the top of the tank, i think bits of food where caught in the filter bit and it is tryig to eat them. |

as wayne said turn power head OFF for the night , it will find its own way out . In future put some sponge around your power heads |

Get a small sponge to put over the intake of the power head it should stop it happening again your nem has had a lucky escape many are lost to the impellors of power heads. |
