I’ve had this nem for a little over three weeks. It opened up really nicely, but last week it started moving from its initial spot, and has been looking like a little deflated and unhappy. At first it balled up with some tentacles poking out, now it’s kind of flat. It’s also expelling white stringy stuff during the day which I assume is poop. I thought maybe my water is off, so i tested it but nothing seems off. I think it’s stomach is kind of inside out as seen in first pic.
