Default Need help with my anemone

It was doing really good, I've only had it for a couple days. And today I found it like this, all shruken up and it looks like it's insides are coming out.




Everything else is good. So I have no idea. Any help would be nice. Thanks

Sad to say it might be dying i think you need to get rid of it before it pollutes your tank.

Ya man, maybe give it another day or so but I would turn off any pumps you have in the tank that are not anemone safe. They tend to get sucked right into those and then your whole tank is served anemone milkshake.

Does anyone know what would cause this to happen. Yesterday it was huge and looked pretty happy I'd say.

A brain coral, a tree like coral, pipe organ, and a coral that looks like green grass. 2 clown fish, hippo tang, purple tang, yellow tang, zebra eel, banded cat shark, cleaner shrimp, and a couple crabs.

there could be copper in the rock or some other type of medication that is leaching ut of the rock. It could have been injored before you bought it or by one of the tanks you have. could also be doing the Nem poo thing. My nem will shrik if it gets to much flow just does not like it.
