Long tentacle anemone, HEEELLLPPPP!!!!

That may be a reaction to the change in flow in the tank. It might have deflated a bit so it's less likely to be blown around. I'm assuming that the flow is a bit higher with the new wavemaker?
waaaaaaay more powerful, i had two pumps good for about 2000gph total, ive now got the one grye pump good for up to 5000gph, lol. but he had already shrunk in size in the last week prior to getting the new pump.
 
Mine gets really small out of the blue for a couple of days, then he goes back to normal.
 
also, he is literally a quarter of the size that he used to be? did he really lose that much size in a week or so of not eating because of burying himself into my rockwork?
My 8” bubble tip can shrink down to the size of a dime. Let’s it adjust to the new flow and you should be good
 
The pictures look like a good healthy anemone to me. I would leave it alone and wait. My bubble tops move from time to time and change shape and size often. It’s normal. The tentacles look full and strong and that’s what you want to see. I’m doubtful the hammer coral did much if anything to it. These anemones can move when they feel the need and would retract down to nothing or move if they detected potential injury.
