BTA troubles


Hello all,
I have a GBTA that I purchased about 4 months ago. It was placed right In front on a piece of live rock where it could sink it's foot into the rock and get a nice amount of light. After several days the BTA was wide open and looking great! Both clowns were in it all day long. It was a wonderful addition to the tank.

About two weeks later it moved to the underside of my live rock in the back of my tank and has stayed there ever since. I can only see it by looking through the side of the tank up under the rock work. It still appears to be healthy - both clowns (percula) still hang out in it periodically, but it is only opened a little bit and it gets very little light.

I would love to get it out in the open again where it was beautiful but I cannot reach it without taking the rock work completely apart. Can I persuade it to move with direct water flow or some other means??

Any suggestions would be great. I hate having such a wonderful invert and never having anyone see it - including ME!

Thanks in advance,
Sandry75

Mine both like it on the underside of a rock. Part of their protection I guess
