Was just curious to why half of my anemone is all shriveled up should I be concerned? Usually is opened up all pretty.

How long have you had the nem? How long has the tank been going? Lights? Params?

It doesn't look bad in the pic from what I see. Is this in the newly cycled 75 gallon?

Nice looking clown and nem by the way. It could be something as simple as a new tank, new nem and a VERY happy clown. But we will dig a little deeper. @DarthSimon

Mine do this occasionally too and then extend back out after a few hours. All parameters are within range so I haven't been super concerned.

Doesn't look too bad in the pics. The clown is a bit large for the nem, it could just be irritating it a bit.

Woke up this morning and he’s all out now, the pic makes the nem look small couldn’t get a good pic with it being in the corner
