Just got home from work and my anemone is all stretched out like this, is it splitting? Or is something else wrong. It’s still seems happy.

That definitely looks like a split. You'll hear a million different reasons why they split. Good, bad, neutral.
thank you! It has been super happy lately so I’m assuming good. I just want it to finish splitting so I can move it off of the corals or shifted onto lol

After it's done splitting as painful as it will be to watch it sit on another of your corals I'd wait around a week to let it heal before trying to move it to not damage it or spark another stress split
