Hey guys so I have just came back from dinner and my anemone looks like this


It looked like this be for my lights went blue


My clowns are still swimming in it and all the rest of my anemones look great my green carpet anemone was really close to it during the day and I’m not sure if that has anything to do with it?

Looks like a fairly healthy Magnifica. How long have you had it before this started?

Mine will do that every 24-36 hours when my water quality is shot. Not necessarily nitrates or anything either. Like I am just coming to the conclusion that it does it when I feed cheap nori to my tangs. A big water change and running carbon is my personal suggestion, but knowing your current parameters would be very helpful, as this species is very sensitive.

I don’t know what they currently are, I think it could be a level of something but also all my anemones are pooping right now so I guess I’ll have to do a small water change

So I have 28 Nems in a tank. They are constantly shape shifting and at first it freaked me out as well. The nights that I feed them they def do that but just dont worry about it until they starting staying like that for more than a day or two. You will also notice that if they do stay like that, a few days later they will start opening their mouths wide open. This is when you really have an issue. I have tried to baby many back to health but i have had 0 success. If they do die in your tank, they will fall apart and poison your tank and the water will stink. Do immediate big water change and try getting it out with a net because it falls to pieces when touched. I wont risk my tank for one Nem so I just toss it.
