      You could try and point a powerhead at it but most likely it moved because it was not happy in that spot that it was in and will just keep moving until it finds a spot that it likes.

      Thanks. I might just let nature take its course. I was happy to see it in that spot for over a month and thought it would not move.

      Mine changes weekly. You can also enocourage it to choose a place by putting a spotlight where you want it. Never done that, but heard it can work.

      Right now rbta is in the back, which has less light. I hope it will move back to the front.

      Oh, one tip - when/if it's on the move (or you are trying to get it to move), consider turning your flow down to the minimum. The first time I forced mine to move (by blocking out the light above it) I found it almost completely sucked into one of my WP-10s.
