Not sure why it would re-arrange (or whatever happened to) its tenticals, but In wouldn't be concerned at this point.
 
That's because BTAs don't have tentacles in the center, they have a ring of feeding arms around their oral disc. Looks fine to me!
 
I was just wondering because when I got them months ago thay had tenticals in the middle an now they seem to lose them.
They have just stretched out so there's more flesh showing in the center. Mine do this from time to time but I've never really looked into what might be causing it
Some BTAs have nice plump bubbles, some have skinnier tentacles, some expand like yours and show more flesh... It's all good :)
 
Looks fine to me however all pics show different locations, it Will find it's ideal spot and hopefully thrive

Thanks thats good to know
 
IMO they look ticked off. Healthy anemones don't look that deflated
 
Run carbon this is how my BTA look
