Sounds like the tank is still in cycling mode. I would continue to test, do smaller water change more often. Add some live cured rock if able

Ten gallons is too much, try two gallons and keep testing for ammonia. Double check the level against another test kit if able (local fish store).

What kind of water are you using? Tap or RO/DI ?

The cloudiness could either be a bacteria bloom ( white cloudiness ) or algae bloom ( green cloudiness ).

The anemone appears to be a type of Condylactis, a non hosting anemone.
