Judging by the pristine whiteness of your sandbed, I’m going to assume your tank is weeks old. Anemones should really only be introduced into tanks that have been stable for 6+ months. That doesn’t matter now, but if this one doesn’t make it, and I don’t think it’s going to, hold off on getting any more anemones until your tank is stable and well-established. What are the rest of your params (specifically alk and salinity). It’s difficult to recommend a course of action without more information.ph is 8.3, ammonia and nitrate are just above zero but i have to do a water change today.
my tank is not quite 6 months old but i do have other anemones that are perfectly healthy and have been for awhile. my sand bed is actually so clean due to it being stirred up by gobys and snails.Judging by the pristine whiteness of your sandbed, I’m going to assume your tank is weeks old.

I don’t say this to be condescending, there are a lot of lessons we all have learn in this hobby (and some we will inevitably learn the hard way), but please do lots of research on any future inhabitants you plan to keep (impulse purchases are usually never a good thing in this hobby), and please, please ask here if you have any questions or are unsure about something (whether it’s about a species, water chemistry, or equipment) BEFORE pulling the trigger.
anyway to stop it?Its turning itself inside out. If it continues this, it's a goner.
