My rose bubble anemone disappeared for a week or two so when I investigated it........ It looked like he was dying under this rock with a cave shape. So I flipped it over now there is two one looks healthy and one doesn't. Neither one will eat does this look bad??

I'd leave them alone but watch closely. If you see them decaying then get them out immediately. Probably stressed from the split but with good water parameters they should recover.
 
Anemones usually move because they are trying to find a place that they like better. It may be to much or not enough light, to much or not enough current, looking for better water quality etc. I do not see any signs of injury. They are not flaccid, no obvious signs of disintegration. Nope I think you simply just have 2 now!
Congratulations on your new baby!

Nice! Mine just split as well but strangely the new one moved away at first but went back and settled right in with the mother again. Is this normal behavior? Sorry if it's a hijack but thought this thread similar to my concerns.
 
I think its ok. Mine sits deflated with its mouth open. Scares me every time but then the next day it's fine. Fwi it doesn't do that very often.
 
Congrats on the split...mine just did also 2 days ago. Looks normal to me.
