BTA now besties with Toadstool. Appropriate course of action?

I have a large japanese toadstool leather and black widow BTA. Neither one is moving. Just getting bigger. And I'm quite stuck as to the best course of action. This rock is Pukani so the BTA isn't going anywhere. His foot is, no joke, 5" deep into a tiny crevice. And the toadstool is massive. Its stalk is four inches across. 

 

Will this play out in the exact way I'm assuming it'll play out? AKA anemone wins and my gorgeous toadstool is no longer gorgeous? Any instances of these two weirdly co-existing?

I don't know anything much about anemones, but that toadstool should be fine if you cut it at the base and move it. If you decide they do need more space. Mine peels off the rock pretty easily.

I have BTA all around my Lonestar Leather, which is very similar to your Japanese, and I don't have issues.  The toadstool stay closed where the nem touches it but doesn't do any damage.  Don't be so sure your nem won't move either.  As the toadstool grows, it could shade the nem and cause it to move...
