I got what I think is an anemone today I don’t know what species it is or if it’s healthy I got it earlier today and it rolled around for a little then finally settled as is.

I would say a purple long tentacle anemone. Make sure you research its care requirements. Sounds like you didn’t expect (or prepare for) this arrival.

anemones Retract there tentacles into there base when they feed, at night or if water conditions are off to them. Doesn’t look like anything abnormal to. Keep in mind, I am not an expert but have 6 bubble tips.
