Anemones absolutely hate dinos, and I think that is what may be on the rocks around it. They are fairly toxic to most marine life. Would be best if you can take it out until the dinos are gone.
The dinos will kill the anemone if they are present for long enough.

No idea what happened, I have 3 anemones. The other two are perfectly fine. I was cleaning the glass and my biggest rose tip just shriveled up. It’s always been that color but it’s never shriveled like that before

When you cleaned the glass was there brown stuff with bubbles on the glass?
If that was the case one thing i've found that really disturbs nems is when they the dinos start touching them directly. Due to their sticky bubble tips when healthy, free floating dinos that have been cleaned off of glass or rock easily stick to them and in some cases they may even end up eating them, with dinos being toxic this is not ideal.

Not sure on the dinos, I see a lot of bubble algae though. Nem looks unhappy, but not terrible.

Those little dots are sand on my rocks because I used to have a trigger that likes to spit sand everywhere

It's the shiny looking stuff on the right that looks like bubble algae to me. It's too blurry to tell for sure, but I see a quite a bit of shine coming off green spherical looking things.

Nem looks worse in this pic that the first. Gaping mouth now. Maybe it was gaping in the first pic, but again, hard to tell.
