Default Hardy Lilly question

Above info all good regarding the lilies. But remember: you're already
overstocked. The more big plant baskets you put in, the less water area you
have for the fish. And lilies *really* don't like water movement.

Sorry, this is kind of lilly 101 question...

I bought one for my 400 gallon pond. It sits center in a 4" square
basket, wired to a cinder block (about 1" below surface).

It is in the basket from the garden store; I have not transplanted it.

It seems to be growing lots of shoots, but it does get some turbulance
from the waterfall.

My questions are this. Should I lower it (the stalks are around 8" to
the leaves). Should I get another (I thought one would be more than
enough?) Should I transplant it (the store said no, container size did
not matter).

Anything else I am forgetting? I do have a couple of Koi...
