I know this is a really old post but I have the exact same anemone (Green BTA with purple base). Mine is doing the exact same thing. Did it come back? What did you do to get it healthy again? I have roseBTA's and they are fine. It's just this one.

My anemone suddenly “lost” it’s tentacles, but it’s “stem” seems to still be living. I fed it some mysis shrimp tonight and it ate it and pulled back into itself like normal. See pictures. Will the tentacles grow back or are they just severely retracted?

I have a BTA that did this and I thought he was going to die but he started re growing them. I know this isnt a BTA but maybe that can happen here!
