Anemone Protruding

[scroft]

My carpet anemone is protruding its stomach out and when I feed it mysis shrimp it returns to normal then protrudes again. It's been in the tank for about 4 days now. What should I do? These are the water parameters,

Ph 8.2
Calcium 440
Alk 10.7 dkh
Magnesium 1350
Nitrate 12.7
Phosphate .14

My BTA will occasionally do this, but not for days at a time. Can you provide some details about the age of your tank, lighting, and flow?

If the foot is still holding strong, It'll probably be fine. How is it doing now? Hopefully, someone else can jump on and check it out too.
