I bought a large bubble tip tues. and it was doing great until yesterday. Yesterday it was closed all day and this morning it was even more shriveled. I'd fed it like two or three time with dried shrimp and some frozen food. What could it have been and is it dead or just all closed and shriveled? I have a 40 g breeder with 12o PW and 20 antinic. Water movement is pretty good and lots of LR and LS. Please help!!!

you probably need more lighting about 90-100 watts more. also if he by current you might want to move hime. mine has closed up before he does it about once a week and he is always fine. hopes this helps.

It's not dead but it's on its way if you don't get more light. You'll know your anemone is dying if it starts disintegrating and letting off stuff that looks like jelly or whispy milky stuff.

He is probably not dead. Mine does that every day. They get the "poop" and fluids out of there system. Just watch him, get more lights.
