Shot out of the dark, because not familiar with the curly Q's but silversides work well for BTA's. Could try that..... (Remember just a wild stab at it ... to try to help
)

If you look it up on this site, it says meaty food and strong light....Do you ever put anything but pellets in your tank? You might want to get some frozen foods to add.

A pic would be best. Curly Q anemones are sometimes referred to as LTA's. However a true curly Q is a type of glass anemone. If your lighting is good feeding is not really that important, but any raw marine foods will do. Clams, silversides, shrimp etc... minced and administered with a turkey baster is more beneficial to them then a whole chunk. HTH

minced shrimp... You can also crush up some flake food and put it in a turkey baster and blast it at em' Should stick pretty well.
