i have a GBTA that has found its way behind my LR and i was just wondering if anybody knows how to get them to move or get them off of the piece of LR?

1 - Is it a problem if it stays there? More than likely it will move in a few hours/days.

2 - Some point a powerhead at it's foot to help in moving it physically by you (eventually prying it off) or on it's own.

3 - An icecube in a ziploc baggy is said to work. Place it on the foot, but not by just mashing it on there and letting it sit. Just touch it every so lightly and often.

Why do you want to move it? They wander to the area that they prefer. As long as you want it in the tank, just leave it alone. If you're trying to remove it from the tank entirely then sometimes putting some ice in a ziploc bag against their foot will help get them to loosen up. Sometimes pointing a PH at them will annoy them and they'll wander away from the direct current. If you can get your fingernail in between the foot and the rock you might be able to very slowly peel it off, but it's very easy to injure it doing this, so you have to be careful. If you're not trying to get it out of the tank, you're best bet is to leave it alone.

i dont have a problem with it there, but my clown does. now hes chasing all hte other fish around the tank cause he cant get to the GBTA. i really dont want to disturb the LR. ill try the PH method first then so on. hes really pissed that he cant get to it. i never had a problem with him until now, he used to leave everything else alone. thanks for the tips

he knows where BTA is , he just cant get to it. the BTA some how moved through a small creavise in the LR and now blocks any opening big enough for the clown. theres just enough space for water movement passing it. this is why i asked, sorry for not discibing it better

Its fine. If it really bothers you, then you can proceede. However if it were me, just let it be. Something will give soon enough. The anemone will move or come around. Mine always do. The clown will get used to it.
