My bubble tip anemone appears to be maybe splitting? Can anyone advise if that looks accurate based on the photos?

Parameters:
Salinity 1.027
Mg 1340ppm
Alk 10.4dKh
Ca 400ppm
Phosphate 0.18
PH 8.0
Ammonia 0ppm
Nitrite 0ppm
Nitrate 10-20ppm

I’ve had the anemone for about a month. I did notice it’s dulled in color since I got it and based on the troubleshooting and research I’ve done, it appears to be a low light issue, so I currently have my lights (AI Prime 16HD) on a 10% increase acclimation cycle for the next 50 days.

Any info would help! Sorry if I posted in the wrong place, I’m newish!

That edge looks like it, but we would need to see more of the mouth really. Most times they split relatively quickly over a few hours maybe a day, so if it is, it will become more and more noticeable.

I didn’t get a good photo of the mouth, but I’ve noticed over the last couple weeks that the mouth seemed to be migrating towards the side where the edge split currently is.
