I have recently purchased an anemone and its been doing great, eating, well found a nice hole in some shells and was doing fine. This morning it seems to have turned inside out almost. It has "balled" up and has retracted its tentacles, is my anemone dying? Oh its a Hatian Pink Tipped Condy.

I have one full sun and one 50/50, and all the params are perfect. I havent feed it in two days could it just be hungry? And I'll try for pic when the light is on.

This is the best pic I could get, the tentacles are are starting to come back out now, but seem almost flat instead of round.

probably just taking a poop. Mine dose it every couple of days they deflate to empty there stomach. then re-inflate. Scared me the first time too. Found allot of info on this site just search the threads if you want more details.

nems have vary peculiar behavior sometimes. usually they are fine if all test out ok. if the weird behavior persists more than a few days you may wana check out all the params and equipment or do a water change.
