Why does my bubble anemone hide itself in the live rock?

For the first month it stayed out in the open, was embraced by clownfish, and all was good.
Now it's hiding. Too much light? Have 1 100 watt Coralife

That wouldn't be too much light. Usually when an anemone hide or wanders around the tank it is because something changed in the tank and it isn't happy. Leave it alone and see what happens. If it starts wandering and doesn't find a happy spot or starts to shrivel up or turn white or transparent then you need to start worrying.

dont worry dmachdog...my long tentacle anenome does it ALL the time. it will stay in one spot for a month, and then out of no where, it decides to move inside the live rock where you can barely see it..drives my maroon clownfish NUTS!!!! mine just moved out from the rock last week and is now on the opposite side of the tank..must of got tired of me looking at it...must be shy. all kidding aside...mine has never looked healthier, even with all the hiding. i though at one point it was stuck to my HD jet but they are alot tougher than you think. let it be and see what happens. i used to nudge mine to get it to move to a good spot for me to see it but it didnt like that at all, would just float around the tank all day long pissed off at me, i could swear it gave me THE FINGER one time!!!
