my anemone has become very small and I don’t know why the first pictures is what it used to look like and the second is what it looks like now.
Parameters:
Salinity: 1.024
PH: 8.4
Nitrite: 0ppm
Nitrate: 5ppm
Ammonia: 0ppm

There are many things it could be, but I think your water is too clean for anemones, and that could be a factor.
 
I do also have a lot of algae that’s been growing recently. Do you think my nitrates test low because the algae is using all the nutrients?
 
That’s normal, that’s a Cody and they do that a lot. More so if the water is dirty and feeding/filtering alot.
It was sold to me as a bubble tip and I think it is a bubble tip because it also looked like this. I think it just looked like a condy at first because there was a lot of water flow at the time.

What's your phosphate at? If it's extremely high, that could be a problem.

What kind of lighting do you have? It looks like it's bleaching a bit.
