"Ruby" the bubble tip anemone on a 4 day taxi ride?

Hi Reefers:


Alright I have a question about my bubble tip anemone. We call him "Ruby" and he glows a beautiful florescent orange and green in the moonlight and I am very happy we made the decision to adopt.


Background:
Adopted 1/16 temp and drip acclimated over 3 hours. Introduced mid tank in a depression on a slab of live rock. I have attached a picture. Has eaten frozen clam and frozen brine since bringing him home.


Question:
On 1/19 he started to move to find a new location (which I expected might happen), BUT... he has attached himself to a Turbo Snail and ever since they are just cruising the tank together. I have attached a picture. Is this normal behavior? Are either of them in any harm? They appear to be inseparable. Ruby is still eating. Turbo is still moving. I had originally hoped our two clowns, Marlon and Coral might host, but I do not think they want a mobile home???


I just want to know if this is normal behavior, should I be concerned about anything here or just let them travel together? Will Ruby ever settle down and pick a spot?


Just looking for feedback.


Thanks
