Magnificent anemone health?

[leighla wolf]

Can anyone tell me if this magnificent anemone at my lfs looks healthy! Is that his foot in the air that hasn’t attached to just part of his flesh?

Looks like it could be everting its “stomach”.

Personally, I’ve stopped dealing with these - I’ve lost dozens of them over the years, in both wholesale and retail settings….even when they look good, they often die.

The Long Island Aquarium has done really well with them, so they aren’t impossible, but I stick with bubble tips only now.

It kinda looks like it’s upside down? Can’t see the middle enough, is that just rubble or something maybe attached to its foot (upside down)?
