Looks like it's actively dying. Also looks a dyed Sebae anemone, not one of the hardest anemones for a new hobbyist.

Thanks for reply was told it was a radianthus anenome in the shop and I sent pic's to them.they said it looked like it was splitting and not dying because it was not mucousy.think it's time to take it out?

Welcome to R2R Paddy! Sorry about the anemone. At this point I would just keep an eye on it.

The base of your anemone looks to be turning into just dead decaying tissue.
Test for ammonia, if you see a detectable level than the anemone has begun to decay and should be removed.
