I've had these BTAs and they were all doing fine and today the dark green one detached from its rock and has it's tentacles retracted? Is it dying or on the move? It was next to this rose one doing just fine. Thanks in advance for your replies.

He might be on the move, It's hard to tell with nems. Sometimes they like to deflate for one reason or another and look all sickly, but are perfectly healthy. I would monitor the situation and report back here with updates.

I also have this anemone and it's doing fine.

I guess I was just over reacting. It is definitely on the move. Thanks for the replies.
