Sfin's Dream.

Well, one of my girls is now my son and he likes boys and girls at different times. At this point I am just laughing along with them and hoping everyone stays healthy. Seriously, we raised them right. I want them to have healthy relationships and that begins with them learning about it as a teenager just like most of us did.
Thats all we can do. Love them and steer them in the right direction.
 
This is from Amoo's Cipro sticky thread (weird, BTW, I can no longer tsg Amoo). Thought it may help. He grades his anemones based on this. As you can see a droopy mouth is pretty close to having a completely healthy anemone.

Amoo's Severity Scoring System:

0 - Healthy Nem
1 - Tentacles shortened, still fully inflated, mouth tight, responsive to touch
2 - Tentacles shortened, still fully inflated, mouth slightly droopy, responsive to touch
3 - Tentacles shortened, still fully inflated, mouth slightly open, responsive to touch
4 - Tentacles shortened, still fully inflated, mouth open, responsive to touch
5 - Tentacles shortened, still fully inflated, mouth gaping open with insides exposed, responsive to touch
6 - Tentacles shortened, partially inflates, mouth gaping open with insides exposed, responsive to touch
7 - Tentacles shortened, inflates and deflates multiple times daily, mouth gaping open with insides exposed, responsive to touch
8 - Tentacles shortened, most always deflated, mouth gaping open with insides exposed, responsive to touch
9 - Tentacles shortened, always deflated, mouth gaping open with insides exposed, barely responsive to touch
10 - Tentacles shortened, always deflated, mouth gaping open with insides exposed, non-responsive to touch
11 - Mush (Sorry )
Can you Define droopy mouth.
 
Can you Define droopy mouth.
The mouth should be tight. Yours is closed but seems a little puckered up in the pictures, but it is tight. I would not worry unless it was open or discharging something.
