Hey guys, I got this nem that's looking a bit stressed. He is inflated by his feet and is upside down. He's a black widow and looked fine when I got him earlier from shipment but not so much now. I have a quarintine ready if needed. Should I do something? Or is this normal?also if it makes any difference, It's night right now (I turned on room lights to take a picture).

Picture in bag is before I placed it in my display tank. I drip acclimated and everything so I don't this its shocked from that

Oooh. Now that you mention it, there was a solid piece of something that looked like poop in the box. I bet that's what it was doing. It accually is looking a bit better now and may have just seen it at a bad moment (I've been at work all day since I put it in the tank).

I was just worried as this is my first anemone and didn't want to hurt it due to my own negligence

Thanks!
 
They are very exciting to watch lol I basically float and dripped acclimated mine and he’s been in the same spot since I put him in the tank a month ago
