anemones at night

[imaburch]

Can anyone tell me the normal behavior for a sebae and condi anemone at night?
Around 8 or 9 at nght the condi deflates to a very, very small pile of stuff. Then in the morning it puffs back up again. then tonight the sebae kind of turned in on itself, where before it was normal all night long. My clown is still trying to snuggle in the sebae, but no arms for it to rest in. Is ths normal????

yes, they inflate and deflate all the time. Sometimes my long tentacle buries itself completely in the sand.

Yeah they will do that, call it a resting mode. Just make sure your water is as good as can be.
