this is army anemone. It never opens anymore and will eat but spit the food back out. I have a mixed reef with acros and everything is doing well except the anemone. Just need some advice on what’s wrong with it and how to help it
 
Can you post your test readings?
 
Alk 10.9
Cal 490
Mag 1350
Nitrates 20ish
Phosphates 3
But no algae growth which is weird
 
How old is the tank? He is not doing good...could be alot of things. He might need a cipro treatment....
 
What’s your salinity? Phosphate seems very high if it’s actually “3.0”.
