Yesterday afternoon, I bought my first anemone, a RBTA. It looked a bit sad in the store, but had a great color and some good 'bubbles.' I drip acclimated for two hours. It found a spot it liked in the tank and looked great last night. Here is a picture:
When the lights went off, it deflated and curled up inside its foot. The lights have now been on for about 3 hours, and it still looks miserable. Here's a current pic:
Tank parameters:
75 gallon + ~15 gallons in sump
2 250watt MH lamps
Ammonia: 0
Nitrates: 0
Nitrite: 0
Temp: 78-80
Calcium 400
pH 8.2
What do I do to save the little guy? My fish (1 false perc and 1 six line wrasse), and cleaner shrimp are doing fine and have been for months. My xenia has looked good for the time I've had it - several weeks. Any ideas?
